La misofonia è una malattia mentale?

Yes and no. Research is still underway to determine what medical umbrella misophonia falls under. Misophonia is considered a complex multi-sensory disorder which traverses the fields of audiology, neurobiology, psychology, and more.

However, having misophonia can definitely affect one’s mental health. Coping with misophonia is difficult and numerous recent studies have been about effective management of the anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues that misophonia can bring. A psychologist or therapist might be able to help manage life with misophonia and its related mental health concerns.
