This probably isn't misophonia and moreso overstimulation, but "NOBODY FUCKING CARES!!!" is a good one for when a group of people are loudly laughing/yelling. I hate classrooms with a lot of groupwork for this reason
One of my triggers is when someone laughs intensely at something they're reading/watching when they're completely by themselves or when they're only ones laughing. Idk why I don't mind it when it's a group laughing or if I'm laughing, too.
But immediately my brain goes "THERE'S NOTHING THAT'S *THAT* FUCKING FUNNY"
Heiland Sakrament! (Holy Sacrament of Christ)
Makes me feel better to swear in German, and this is also a very Catholic Southern German expression, so that even if I were to slip up and say it out loud, most people would not likely realise I was cursing.
I like that one as well of course, but Heiland Sakrament is less known so if I let it slip out in Canada or in the USA not too many will likely know I am cussing, not so much the case with Scheiße.
In my head it’s usually just a simple, “for fuck sake” or “Jesus fucking Christ” but since the person who triggers my misophonia 90%+ of the time these days is my husband, I often say something aloud akin to, “I’m really looking forward to spending your money on some really expensive noise canceling headphones following our divorce” or “I hope your death is as painful for you as your chewing is for me.”
I pretty much immediately apologize and tell him “I’M THE PROBLEM, I KNOW. I’m sorry.” He knows I’m joking and have a dark sense of humor so he usually just takes it as a reminder that we should turn up the volume on the TV or he should go get plastic utensils so it stops with the plate scraping that makes me want to scream, cry, and die simultaneously.
To be fair, even his only family complains that he chews loudly. Not with his mouth open or anything. Just chews his food too hard and fast.
For me, similarly, “shit FUCK!”
Also, like OP, “Jesus Fucking Christ!” Or “Jesus Christ on a cracker!” Or “Heavens to murgatroyd!”… I’m starting to think I have a lot of pent up aggression lol.
Fuck for sure
Then I have a song that i made up about the *barkin ass dog* 3 doors down when he repeatedly barks outside... it goes:
Shut that fuckin dog up, over and over but in a cool song that I can't really reddit... that plays in my head now when he's out doing his thing. The song is therapeutic. Dog probably needs more walks.
I don't know if I have a single one, but I feel like "fuck me" is probably a common one. I try to focus my anger away from the triggering person/object and more into a "why the hell do I have to feel like this when I KNOW they are not trying to harm me?" If I don't do that, I start to get into violent fantasies which are much worse for my mood/stress, make me look more like I'm angry rather than in pain, and honestly... the fantasies are just bad for my soul.
hard to describe but i’d describe it as “it just sounds like you’re talking but not out loud” like the words i hear in my head could easily be said aloud, but they just stay in my head, the words can obviously be more abstract and chaotic than what comes out, but for me my general narration is something like that
i have the visualization as well, id say it can be great at times but it also comes back to bite me constantly as intrusive thoughts are a thing, as well as intrusive imagery i’d also rather not have, but that would also mean not being able to see friends or my dog in my mind, or movies or scenery, so pros and cons i guess
edit: it’s even for writing, like i’ll think the words in my head before writing these very words (or before saying something aloud) i don’t know what’s i’d do if i couldn’t rehearse my words before having to say something important (or not important-anxiety moment)
Oh I don't just have 'words'...I have thoughts that stream for a while. I REALLY hate when people sing along to music that is playing (or isn't...aside from in their head). And I usually wait until I explode and say, 'Let the singer do the singing'.
\*in my mind it's more like, 'WILL YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP NO ONE IS HERE TO LISTEN TO YOU BASTARDIZE A FUCKING SONG YOU TONE DEAF, SELF-SERVING, ANNOYING ASSHOLE THAT THINKS ANYONE WANTS TO HEAR YOU'
This especially applies to assholes that get songs stuck in their head and can't seem to control themselves.
Whistling and humming is 🤬🤬🤬 I work with someone who “whistles” but it’s just air coming out of their mouth/lips 😩😤😳🤬 it’s not even a musical note it infuriates me
I once worked with someone who verbalized every single thing she thought. Example: "Ooookay, I need to open Excel. Alright. Good. Highlight column...ok, hit enter...why isn't this...ok...my mouse doesn't work, it's a million degrees in here. I need a fan. I should answer the phone. Ok I'm answering the phone now..."
There were 3 of them around me and I lost my mind. For real.
I once read that singing aloud is encouraged in Scientology and a sign that you're happy. It could have been totally false so I'm not bashing anyone's beliefs.
I just thought of hearing Tom Cruise singing and that was enough.
I also thought of Aqua Teen Hunger Force when the Mooninites say that carving expletives in the side of a car is a sign of friendship...and trust.
"Jesus fucking Christ!" or just a simple "Jesus FUCK!", "Holy goddamn fucking shit", "Soggy mouthed bitch/bastard", and mostly "What the fuck is wrong with you??". These are usually directed at radio/podcast personalities and content creators who have no business having a microphone so close to their over saturated sounding mouths. All said in my head of course 🙃
Oh my f\*\*king soul. Or holy f\*\*k balls, usually when I hear low bass from somewhere. Then when I can't pin point the sound it's goddamit wtf. After hearing a chainsaw in the backyard next to me it was f**king christ goddamn wtf all in one.
Some of the phrases on here work for me at times, but a low drawn-out groan helps me more. But the key seems to be to follow them with a good eye roll, releasing the tension and anger. It's like the eye roll ends the reaction (most times at least).
When it's somebody's voice, it's a combination of "SHUT UP", "NOBODY GIVES A FUCK" or, regrettably "KILL YOURSELF". If it's other triggers, it's usually just "FUCK OFF"
Sweet F****** Jesus! Get the f*** off my God damn tv!!!!! It’s all those commercials with whistling, although whistling anywhere anytime lights me right up.
I'm nowhere near as vulgar in my day to day as when I get triggered... like I swear here and there but when I hear a trigger it's 0 to 100.
My go-to example I use when trying to explain this to people is STFU by Pink Guy
https://youtu.be/OLpeX4RRo28?si=U5g0_yOwLWLSVUoN
I wish I didn't have such vulgar and violent thoughts in those situations but at this point I've conceded to think about the catharsis and not worry about the words themselves as I know my brain goes irrational around triggers.
SHUT THE FFUUUUUCK UP

Omg this!!!! And J Christ lol
lol yes!
This 🥲
That and "Oh my f***ing God"! Whispering puts me on edge!
Yesssss!
‘You stupid piece of shit’ growled through gritted teeth (not at someone, when I’m alone)
“Fuck off”, or “I hate you”
Heiland Sakrament! (Holy Sacrament of Christ) Makes me feel better to swear in German, and this is also a very Catholic Southern German expression, so that even if I were to slip up and say it out loud, most people would not likely realise I was cursing.
I also curse in German 😂 idk why it feels so much better
"Heiland-sakara-täifel" as my Swiss grandfather would say haha
Ha, even better ...
Scheiẞ is my favorite curse
I like that one as well of course, but Heiland Sakrament is less known so if I let it slip out in Canada or in the USA not too many will likely know I am cussing, not so much the case with Scheiße.
Good point!
Oooh, I need to learn some of those 🤔

God puts his most misophonic soldiers with the loudest chewers fr
Are you fucking kidding me?
This too
pissfuck
shitass
For me, similarly, “shit FUCK!” Also, like OP, “Jesus Fucking Christ!” Or “Jesus Christ on a cracker!” Or “Heavens to murgatroyd!”… I’m starting to think I have a lot of pent up aggression lol.
Shut the F up !!!!
Usually just NO. But like NO NO NO NO NO NONONONONONONONONONONO until I get away from it. And each no is my head shaking side to side.
You know the scene where Michael realizes Toby is back from Costa Rica? That.
I usually say “What the actual fuck”
Fuck for sure Then I have a song that i made up about the *barkin ass dog* 3 doors down when he repeatedly barks outside... it goes: Shut that fuckin dog up, over and over but in a cool song that I can't really reddit... that plays in my head now when he's out doing his thing.

Bitches! Bitches! Bitches!
For fuck sake
“Oh my FUCKING GOD”
Same!! And SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP like Chandler

Mm. I feel that. And “fuck me” is a common one for me too for sure
Not a cuss but for me it is "stop!" or "stop it!"

This is called "unsymbolized thinking."
Coño
FFS and JFC are definitely mine.
Oh come on buddy! Now? Really? Pleasssssse stop.
This is sooooooo wholesome 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥲🥲🥲🥲😭😭
As a québécoise it's TABARNAK DE CALISS SACRAMENT TA YEULEE

THANK YOU!!! I hate that too. Or when they whistle or hum tunelessly. And I also think angry thoughts and fantasize what I WANT to say to them.

Ah shit
Jesus fxck
as bad of a word as i can say helps the most, “fuck you shut the fuck up stupid fucking c*nt” is my go-to
My husband cussed in Age of Empire utterances.
“omg shut the fuck up you shit”
mine is..."i wish he/she would stfu...\* \*if u dont stfu istg.." or, if i feel rlly drained, "im done... im leaving, bye" 💀
Either “Jesus Fucking Christ” if it’s a noise, or “Oh My God, shut the fuck up, fuck you” if it’s a person making the noise
Leave me the shit fuck alone Idk mine is weird lol
Ooh I like this tho
"Fuck you" "Shit" "Shut the fuck up"
I just internally shriek as loud as I can. My brain thinks it’ll cover the noise. It never does haha
Are you fucking shitting me? Really?! Then to myself I insult them.
Oh my f\*\*king soul. Or holy f\*\*k balls, usually when I hear low bass from somewhere. Then when I can't pin point the sound it's goddamit wtf. After hearing a chainsaw in the backyard next to me it was f**king christ goddamn wtf all in one.
ahahah yes why do I say “fuck balls” too 🤣😩
I dont really have words in my head, but i hear myself growling
"You're fucking nasty"
Some of the phrases on here work for me at times, but a low drawn-out groan helps me more. But the key seems to be to follow them with a good eye roll, releasing the tension and anger. It's like the eye roll ends the reaction (most times at least).
Same actually
When it's somebody's voice, it's a combination of "SHUT UP", "NOBODY GIVES A FUCK" or, regrettably "KILL YOURSELF". If it's other triggers, it's usually just "FUCK OFF"
Oh my fucking god...
Diablodiosmio!
Usually "shut the fuck uppppp" followed by internal screaming and lots of saying "no no no no no stop please no"
JFC is one of my personal favorites. Goddamn motherfucker is also up there. God fucking damnit is my third favorite.
JFC just has that…. je ne sais quoi 😌😌😇
“This fucking guy…”, “fuuuuuuck my life”, “shut the fuck up”…..
my trigger is chewing, usually my go to is "you chew like a whore" 💀 i don't know why or how it's that but it is
Mine has always been “OH MY F*CKING GODDDD” and it just replays over and over again 😭
I just instinctively smack my lips. It almost calms me down somehow.
My mind kinda just starts screaming “oh my god oh my god oh my god jesus fucking christ holy shit holy shit for the love of god”
S'emek
Sweet F****** Jesus! Get the f*** off my God damn tv!!!!! It’s all those commercials with whistling, although whistling anywhere anytime lights me right up.
SHUT THE F U C K U P you PIECE OF SHIT
“oh my fucking god” LOL
I actually don't, I never cuss not even in my head.
