Nose sniffling, eating and breathing noises and tapping are all examples of trigger sounds for people suffering from this illness.

misophonia 

A new or undiscovered word to many, misophonia is condition in which certain sounds provoke strong negative emotional reactions in people (anger, panic, or disgust) to a person with the disorder. One or more "trigger" sounds can cause these emotions. Common trigger noises include (but are not limited to) chewing, snorting, slurping, whispering, whistling, shushing, lip-smacking, and sneezing. Misophonia tends to develop in children and gets progressively worse over time. If someone with misophonia tells you to stop whistling, slurping, ect, stop. If you don't stop, you are a twatmuffin and we can't be friends.
"Why does Alex get angry when I whistle?"
"He has Misophonia. It's a little like OCD but with certain noises."
"Well, I'm not a twatmuffin so I'll try to work on not whistling around him."

Mucophobia 

The fear (justified or not) of having a booger protruding, hanging, dangling, stuck to or smeared on one's own nose or nostril.

Cures: The only known remedy for this affliction is to seek out a mirror immediately. The word of friends or family will do nothing to assuage the mounting panic the sufferer displays, which will generally manifest itself in frantic and overly-frequent rubbing of the nose or nostril(s)
1st person: "Do I have a booger hanging from my nose?

2nd person: "I don't see anything. You must be suffering from Mucophobia."

1st person: "Did you see a mirror in the bathroom?"
