Who else here is a misophonic?

[Mon1to]

For me, the sounds that trigger me the most are chewing and loud breathing:/

[SereneScribe3]

I generally can tolerate most sounds, no matter how loud they are, even that of a washing machine (unless someone is hammering the wall), but certain pitches and tones of human voices really get to me, especially when I'm in a bad mood (stressed or haven't slept enough), or are doing some activity that requires focus, such as reading for instance, or studying. That's why I sometimes wear noise canceling headphones, when I need silence, as my neighbor is really loud and talks non-stop from 7 am.

I have nothing against him; I’m sure he’s not a bad person. But his voice is like a herd of wild buffalo charging into your space.

Ugh, almost any kind of asmr or whispering in general drive me up the wall.

[ManOnFire]

This is a great question, I had no idea there was a term for it but there are sounds that bug me, yeah. A certain kind of chewing irritates me, the sound of whiny voices, whispering as @Ez-Bri-Z_v2 noted that truly does make me blow my top, and hearing people nervously clearing their throats repeatedly especially in meetings.

Ugh, chewing is the second worst sound ever, right after the repeated clicking sound of someone cutting their fingernails. Arg!

Dripping water is another one that gets me. Almost any small, repeating sounds infuriate me.
