📋Overview
Misophonia is a condition characterized by strong emotional and physiological reactions to specific sounds, often repetitive and related to human-generated noises such as chewing or breathing. It is considered a neurobehavioral disorder rather than a hearing impairment. The term 'misophonia' is the modern preferred term and is not a legacy or synonym for another condition.
