In conclusion misophonia is still a relatively mysterious condition. The causes are not directly known and neither is a kind of cure. Therapy is always recommended to help lessen the discomfort associated with the sounds. The disorder is extremely delicate and while originally thought to come from trauma, that is not the cause of it. The condition instead causes a sort of trauma and generally develops when normal environmental sounds are associated with discomforting events. Even so, there is still much left to discover about the condition. The condition in itself is quite interesting as is what it affects around the brain or what the brain is affecting to cause it. It is rare but people around the world still suffer from this troublesome disorder that very much so negatively affects their lives. I hope research continues to be done on this disorder so a cure can be presented for it, as for more definite and specific causes.
