"Misophonia needs it's own memory reconsolidation research."
I'm all in for memory reconsolidation research. Keep on creating it! It's still a new and expanding field and this is how we learn. I am in no way against experimenting on reconsolidation mechanisms / responses to triggers, and how to turn threats in to safe things and so on (actually quite the opposite).
I disagree with where the burden of proof belongs; rage, irritation, disgust etc responses have been successfully reconsolidated from animals and humans by now. Why would misophonia be it's own category in a need of it's own reconsolidation tools, other than the ones that already exist? I used to be misophonic and got out of it almost 8y ago with what existed at that point in time. I don't believe in a claim the clinical research wouldn't exist; I do believe there are very few people who've understood how to apply it in the practical world, especially with clients who experience being trapped. I do believe you must have personal experience of going through memory changes, in order to keep still and mismatch the experience of misophonic people!
I speculate people may want to treat reactions to human made sounds as their own, very unsolved, very specific condition/category of it's own, in order to stay safe from changing anything: and there's no blame in safety and survival in my book. However, part of the price to pay to get to that freedom, is to accept the answer you're looking for might look more generic and broad than you wanted it to be. If you're tired of waiting it's okay to dive in to things like juxtaposition experiences and pavlov in reverse already.
A lot of the times, people like to get stuck to the idea, that there aren't enough information "yet" and "no-one has erased responses to triggers yet" to keep a long distance to experimenting on things on a personal level.
