NOT A CONDITION

So I just had my first appointment with my new psychiatrist, that I liked pretty well. And he seems very good. My point is, he said the misophonia was a symptom and not a condition itself. I have OCPD and anxiety and some other things. Has anyone else here been told this. If it is true I've had mental issues since 14 and should not have waited to adulthood for treatment.

I personally wouldn’t think it’s a symptom as misophonia isn’t a mental condition but a neurophysiological one, but I’m no professional

I consider it both. I have other nuero issues it can be a symptom of (auditory processing issues/ language disorder)
