Can' t you stand the sound of heavy breathing or sipping soup? Does the sound of someone chewing gumnext to you make your blood boil? You are not alone ,  but you are not going crazy - there ' s a really scien-tific reason why.
      If you shrink back when someone twists their knuckles(指关节) ,  you might want to get checked out formisophonia. a brain abnormality that creates "a hatred of sounds such as eating, chewing, loud breathing, oreven pen-clicking, "  TIME reports.  Actually,  it ' s just one of the strange habits that prove you ' re smarter than everyone else. Although researchers first coined the term misophonia in 2001. doubt has been thrown on it bythe medical community. But thanks to recent research. it can be safely drawn that everyday noises can ruinpeople ' s lives.  A team at Newcastle University in the U. K.  examined MRI brain scans(核磁共振脑扫描) ofthose with and without misophonia while playing a range of sounds.  The sounds were either neutral ( like rainor water boiling) , unpleasant ( a baby crying or a person screaming) , or trigger sounds ( the sounds of breath-ing or eating) .
      The researchers noted significant changes in misophonia sufferers '  brain activity when they heard a "trig-ger sound. " Turns out. those with misophonia have a developmental difference in their brains frontal lobe(额叶) that causes their brains to react harshly to those triggers. It also causes them to sweat and their heart ratesto increase.
      " For many people with misophonia.  this will come as welcome news as for the first time we have shown a difference in brain structure and function in sufferers." said Dr Sukhbinder Kumar. "This study shows thecritical brain changes as further evidence to convince a skeptical medical community that this is a real disor-der. "
