Loud sneezing or making sounds while eating makes me go mad. What to do in such situations without making anyone feel embarrassed?

Maybe excuse yourself from the table and ask to speak with them. If not then try your best to calm down and except that they can’t help it.

Finally someone like me! 😠I hate when someone make sounds while eating. I didn't come up with any strategy how to tell strangers yet, then means I have to suffer 😅 but when it comes to my family and friends I've learnt that he best way is to be open. Just tell them it makes you go crazy and ask them to eat more quiet. It become a real fun for my friends and me while eating. I'm sure if you politely ask them,they'll understand 😉

You should never keep it bottled up and simply explain, in the nicest way possible, that it’s not their fault you just would prefer if they cover their mouth when making noises while eating.

you could try deep breathing excercises and try to distract yourself from the frustration and annoyance you are feeling. If it is really hard for you to concentrate on something else, you can always excuse yourself and leave the situation for a minute to calm down.

I politely try to engage the person in conversation, and ask open-ended questions during the meal. While they are busy talking, I politely but quickly attempt to finish the bulk of my meal while they talk.

I found out I had misaphonia 2 years ago. I don’t just get annoyed when someone eats loudly or repeatedly clicks on something- I get enraged! My heart starts beating fast and I feel like my body is on fight or flight mode. For me noise cancelling headphones have been a god sent. I just bring them with me everywhere.

Ask that person to turn away or stop politely. Many people don’t realize when they are doing something irritation, so politely asking them to stop is a good start

I try to talk to the people affected and tell them about it. Normally they will understand and you won´t be embarrassed.
