My client Dan said just the other day, “Do I have to love myself to get better? Because if I do, I think it’s hopeless.”

I reassured him. “Do you love animals?”I asked.

“Of course.”

“Do you hate children or do you feel for them?”

“Of course, I feel for children—what kind of monster would I be if I hated kids?”

“OK, then there is no obstacle to your becoming the person you were meant to be. All you have to do is to be open to the young wounded children inside you instead of hating them or ignoring them. Are you up for that?”

“Yes,” and then there was a pause: “but I don’t have to love myself, do I?”

“No, you don’t—you just have to love the kids inside you.”

Misophonia Might Be a Brain Regulation Disorder

Misophonia is more than just an aversion to sound—it reflects a pattern of emotional and cognitive inflexibility.

Individuals with misophonia struggle to switch between emotional tasks and often report rigid thinking and persistent negative thoughts.

A new study found that these traits are not simply side effects of anxiety or depression but may be central to the condition.

The results suggest misophonia may belong to a broader class of neurocognitive conditions defined by inflexible attention and emotional control.
