| I have a few times-- I do triathlons, and as an athlete in high school/college would push myself to that point. It doesn't matter if I eat before working out (if it's a long workout, I frequently eat during as well)...still happens...especially if it's hot out. |

| I've had misophonia since I was a young child as well. I'm glad that you guys recognized it early-- I went most of my life being yelled at, scolded, and belittled for being "crazy". It was only a few years ago that misophonia became better known, and my mother literally called me crying to apologize... |

| In NT society, being sexy - having a sex drive and trying to arouse other people's sex drive - is strongly emphasised and encouraged.
