Any luck using sound muffling headphones or something similar? I'm not sure if they would be safe to use on the job. That's really tough!
I have a pair of Loop earplugs my brother's wife bought me for Christmas a couple years ago. I was skeptical but they help a ton with my sound sensitivity. I used to not be able to be around kids for too long without getting really stressed out by all the yelling and crying and they pretty much eliminated that.
There are many different types of synesthesia, misophonia being just one of them. Another is called mirror-touch, which has some symptoms related to seeing something, either IRL or on tv etc, and feeling the effects even though you shouldn’t be feeling them. Getting the effect of misophonia from just observing the use of something or an action could be an indication that you may have some form of mirror touch synesthesia as well.
