DID YOU HEAR THAT?
In this episode we talk to brain injury survivors dealing with Misophonia. Being extra sensitive to stimulation often occurs after a TBI because your brain is trying to reorganize and stabilize itself - so even a little stimulation may be overwhelming. Sometimes it's because the brain was injured in the part of the brain that's responsible for sensory processing.
