Other For people with autism or misophonia, what is your least favorite sound(s)?

Chewing/wet sounds, cats grooming, children's voices, scraping, the sound of cotton balls.
The sounds of chewing, dogs lapping water drive me nuts the most. Then screaming, wailing, crying, and children's voices. I have not heard the sound of cotton balls though, that is interesting. Whistling also makes me want to punch someone in the face. I try to be patient or sit through it but it's usually a reflexive, reactive thing for me.
 
For me it's when I can hear people chew and breathe loudly. Or when my dad sucks on candy (specifically chocolate, you can hear it from across the house! It's terrible), that's when I go into a near meltdown because of sensory overload. I also don't like sudden clanging noises of dishes but that's cause it makes me jump whenever I hear it LOL ^^;
 
Chewing and crunching are the top offenders, but repetitive noises or music are also intensely aggravating. It's so frustrating to be watching a video and the creator suddenly decides to include an "ASMR, lol" bit without any warning, especially when wearing headphones.

OMG yes >:O
 
OMG yes >:O
I have found out, however, that it's a little easier to ignore eating noises if you are also eating at the same time! Kinda only works when the other person is at least not chewing with their mouth open or crunching as hard as they can, though.
 
Blenders, vacuums, food processors, basically anything that makes an overpowering loud noise
 
Electric guitar whammy......<,< it makes me want to pass out, and the sound of a electric fans as well
 
OOOOOOH BOI MY TIME TO SHINE LOL

So, I don't know if this counts, but it sort of overlaps vestibular and auditory sensory issues, with that being said:
I have grown up going to football games and stadium style events for a long time (like before I gained consciousness) and I have a hard time with EDM music being played over speakers (if you have gone to a home game for the Florida Gators you know who I'm talking about). Nothing against it, if that's what you like, you do you. With all that being said, it just makes my body do those weird internal jiggles and it's loud already in a stadium. It just irks me.
 
The sound of zippers or lenticular photos. Like those damn lunchboxes from back in the days. Anytime I hear them or remember, I just want to jam hot metal rods into my ears.

I also hate the sound of my own chewing. Not others, just my own. Can’t stand it.
 
See, with my 'tism I don't mind a lot of sounds, but I absolutely hate my voice. That's it.
 
Styrofoam and drilling.
Our neighbor has been doing renovation for the past month and I work from home, so I have been in meltdown hell.
