無(wú)法忍受的“恐音癥”

聽(tīng)到別人咀嚼食物、啃東西、狂點(diǎn)滑鼠、吹口哨、敲手指、敲鍵盤(pán)、甚至喝水的聲音等等，有時(shí)并不是很大聲，但你聽(tīng)了就是會(huì)超怒。擁有這癥狀可能不是因?yàn)槟闱榫w管控欠佳，而是 “恐音癥”。

Misophonia, literally "hatred of sound," was proposed in 2000 as a condition in which negative emotions, thoughts, and physical reactions are triggered by specific sounds. It is also called "select sound sensitivity syndrome" and "sound-rage."
“恐音癥”照字面解釋就是“憎恨聲音”，最初于2000年被提出，指的是在聽(tīng)到某些聲音時(shí)，一些人會(huì)產(chǎn)生負(fù)面情緒、想法、和身體反應(yīng)，也稱(chēng)為“選擇性聲音敏感綜合征”或者“聲怒”。

Why some people become enraged by sounds such as eating or breathing has been explained by brain scan studies.
為什么有些人聽(tīng)到進(jìn)餐甚至呼吸的聲音就會(huì)被惹怒？腦部掃描研究解釋了這一點(diǎn)。

The condition, misophonia, is far more than simply disliking noises such as nails being scraped down a blackboard.
“恐音癥”遠(yuǎn)不止是簡(jiǎn)單的討厭某些聲音，例如指甲劃過(guò)黑板。

"I feel there's a threat and get the urge to lash out - it's the fight or flight response," says Olana Tansley-Hancock, 29, from Kent.
29歲的奧拉娜來(lái)自肯特郡，她說(shuō)：“我感到有威脅，想要猛擊，這是或戰(zhàn)或逃的反應(yīng)。”

UK scientists have shown some people's brains become hardwired to produce an "excessive" emotional response.
根據(jù)英國(guó)科學(xué)家的研究，一些人的大腦在聽(tīng)到某些聲音時(shí)會(huì)產(chǎn)生“過(guò)多的”情緒反應(yīng)。
