Misophonia doesn't really officially exist, so there are no diagnostic criteria, but there is this scale (http://www.misophonia-uk.org/the-misophonia-activation-scale.html) (made by someone with misophonia, not a clinician), so if that looks familiar, particularly the middle and higher numbers, then probably yes?

Personally, I find the sound of someone retching continuously deeply unpleasant, but different in kind from as well as milder than a misophonia reaction (and sniffing is one of my big triggers). But everyone's different, and misophonia hasn't been studied very much at all.

If I had to compare misophonia to any kind of more common reaction to noise, it would be to fingernails scraping down a blackboard, but it's not quite like that either.
