I have for when I hear people chewing. It bugs me enough sometimes that I want to break or hit something.
I've heard that a possible cause of misophonia is that it's similar to synesthesia, only instead of a neural pathway between two senses, it's between the sense of hearing and the emotional centre of the brain. And considering how it's common for people with autism to also have synesthesia, maybe it's something similar? If not, then it may just be how we are more sensitive to sounds.
(also just curious, anyone else have synesthesia and misophonia?)
