I felt the same way during 6 out of the 10 years I had severe-profound hearing loss and could no longer benefit from HAs or an FM system. At the same time, since I grew up hearing, I continued to wear my aids so that I could hear environmental sounds which was imperative for me as a totally blind person. I also used a Comtek FM system via DAI (direct audio input) to increase my ability to hear environmental sounds. Now that I look back at that period in my life, sometimes I wonder why I tried so hard to hear.
