Misophonia Matters Book Offers Practical Coping Tips and Hope for Persons Struggling with Misophonia

COLUMBIA, Mo. - June 10, 2024 - PRLog -- Misophonia Matters is an advocacy-based coping skills approach for adults, teens, and clinicians by long-time advocate Shaylynn Hayes-Raymond. Shaylynn has been advocating for misophonia since 2015 and moved to a career in counselling based on her experiences as a misophonia advocate and sufferer of the disorder. The Misophonia Matters approach includes advocacy, psychoeducation, sensory-based skills, and cognitive and psychological skills. Worksheets are presented throughout the book. Central to Misophonia Matters is the idea that while we cannot treat and prevent misophonia, we can learn to navigate and adapt to our world through accommodation, coping skills, and an empathetic advocacy-based approach. A class based on the Misophonia Matters book will be offered through The International Misophonia Foundation.

A review for Shaylynn Hayes-Raymond's other work, Full of Sound and Fury: Living With Misophonia:

"Being able to read the words of other sufferers, including the writer, helps me feel so much less alone, knowing there are many people who struggle with the same condition in so many similar ways. Knowing that there is someone advocating and pushing for research to be done for us, humbles me and gives me hope that maybe something will be done to help treat these conditions in my lifetime." - Tanya Curtis
