Longtime cannabis smoker (13-42, currently) quit last year because of bad CHS episode and diagnosis. Got back into it, became a problem again.

Today's my first full day without anything. Been thru this ringer before. Hungry, can't eat anything, trouble drinking, ER visits, some ER Ativan and saline and sent back home.

Right Now I'm close to feeling as shitty as I did last year, just squirming around not able to get calm, yakked a few times already. Anyone have any quick fix remedies to get out of this? It's a long shot but I'm desperate right now. I'm doing the tapping and some breathing exercises to no avail just yet. I need to be done with this stuff forever man

Thanks in advance!!!!!!!!! We'll all get through this

TL;DR - I have reactions to certain sounds but they're not causing me physical pain or anything. Wondering if my reactions are indicative of misophonia or is it me just...not liking those sounds.

Are there levels of severity with misophonia? I have a distinct uncomfortable reaction when I hear certain things - but only a few things - and my reaction isn't really what I've seen described elsewhere. I haven't spoken to anyone about their own miso so I'm not quite sure what people who live with it are really feeling. I would imagine there are levels, and folks would experience discomfort wildly differently based on their own body chemistry and environment, but I'm so clueless on this stuff.

The sound of people picking at- or biting their nails, making smacking noises with their mouths, chewing with their mouths open, or loudly chewing with their mouths closed makes me shudder. It's not necessarily pain, just like a quick lightning bolt where I want to jump out of my skin for a second.

Thank you for reading - and thank you to everyone who's responded!
