Anyone here suffer from it???? I've had it as long as I can remember. It's sounds created while eating. Anything, like chomping food with your mouth open, mouth breathers, talking with food in your mouth, chomping ice, etc.It drives me insane. I usually have to leave the room so I don't create a scene.

They finally found a name for it in 2000.

You'd have loved my granddad. He was a well educated man, schoolteacher, but mixed all his food into a slurry, then ate it with his mouth open. Very nasty.

That is very interesting! My girlfriend has a huge problem with the sound some people make when they eat. I have never heard of this before.

Oh, GOOD LORD, I don't even know what to say, I guess we all have our crosses to bear!

I hope you can find something to help you cope/find peace!

Thank you for putting a name to the condition. I used to have it concerning someone's eating/ chewing pattern and it drove me bonkers. Eventually I habituated to the sound, but it took years.

It reminded me of a cow chewing a cud.

showcrop · May 23, 2019

Maybe they will come up with a name for teeth grinding due to bad grammar.

Come on over and watch Mr Piggy our Am. Guinea hog chow down,meet your phobia head on.(LOL)

I have chewed ice as long as I can remember. Mama used to fuss at me.
I have always heard that it means you crave intimate activity. So maybe not a bad habit after all.

I've got it bad. Not only sounds,but if somebody keeps repeating themselves,or says the same thing to me every time I see them especially,I'll eventually explode and go off on them.

I couldn't be in the same room with my father in law for more than 30 seconds. When he was eating,every bite that went in his mouth he'd go MM MM MM. Makes my skin crawl just thinking about it. He couldn't be silent for five seconds. He had to be humming,whistling or muttering some word over and over.

Does farting while chowing down count in this category of sound issues?

RedMF40 · May 23, 2019

I believe an old girlfriend had it. Fritos would set her off--and I like my Fritos. For me, the radio shows on NPR must have the most sensitive microphones in the world--you can hear all the lip-smacking and assorted noises that go along with speaking. That kinda bugs me--they can mute that part of the action as far as I'm concerned.

jddrawbar · May 23, 2019

I've had it long before they found a name for it. Ice chomping is the worst. Cousin has a popping in his jaw when he chews.....I've got to leave!
Sometimes if I don't get tuned in to the noise, it doesn't bother me.

jeffcat · May 23, 2019

Another one is people who have to blow their nose at the table. Sounded like a ferry boat horn that was gurgling. Blow so hard they would need to use a paper towel. Man that would drive me nuts and everyone else at the table. Also people who are double dippers. We don't want your spit in the onion dip!!!

Two Dogs · May 23, 2019

Some of us old people (you might become one some day) have a constantly drippy nose. If we go to the potty every time we need to wipe our noses we would never get to eat. And I can assure you we don't don't like the situation any better than you perfect people do.

0-4 on that

He probably had a lot of teeth missing and pain with those left.

steve19438 · May 24, 2019

had it since I was about 10 years old.

tomtinker · May 24, 2019

Youall watch your language, LOL Youall are embarssing me, makes me feel like a Church Mouse in a Wh0re house. lol.

Crazy Horse · May 24, 2019

Tom ..... your expression about a church mouse reminds me of a neighbor years ago who had more money than he knew what to do with (although he was just a regular kind of guy). The boys used to kid him all the time about his wealth and he very often replied by saying ..... "I'm as poor as a church mouse ....... after the bazaar" !!! I always thought that was a pretty good comeback.
