A 2024 case series gives three descriptive case studies of individuals with misophonia with co occurring OCD

A 2025 case series gives three descriptive case studies of individuals with misophonia with co occurring OCD detailing their symptoms, diagnostic profiles, and treatment responses. All three were classified as misophonic using the Misophonia Response Scale and were also diagnosed with OCD by the author. Each patient received some combination of CBT and medication—fluoxetine, clonazepam, propranolol, or sertraline—and all showed improvement. However, it remains unclear whether these gains reflect changes in misophonia itself or simply the effects of treating co-occurring OCD. As such, the cases serve as a useful reminder of the need to distinguish misophonia-specific mechanisms from symptoms driven by comorbid conditions like OCD. (Shamla et al., 2025 )
