    Deafness and Depression

    Actually which school are you talking about? If its Baxter, I dont believe its open anymore due to some scandals ( thats what I heard, dont quote me on it ). But I think you are right about one thing, and its MAINE. lol I posted a thread about a week ago asking who else was in Maine besides...

    Deafness and Depression

    Im well aware that not all of it ( depression and anxiety ) is due to my hearing loss, but I think it helps knowing its part of it. It's starting to help that Im going to school to learn ASL; it just doesnt help me learn a second language, it opens a whole new world for me too. Feel lonely...

    Deafness and Depression

    Okay, I didnt bother looking through the forums on any related topics about Deafness and depression, so I just went and posted this. I know some people like to use the forums to just come and chit chat, and have fun and share jokes and what not... get away from that real life stuff. But I...

    Hearing girl seeking to make friends

    I am hard of hearing, which is the little place you see that's between the hearing world and the deaf world lol. I can hear a little bit, but not well at all. I get mostly by with what I can hear and reading lips. No offense taken, Im pretty open about it, and I believe most everyone here is...

    Have anyone tried date an hearing person?

    Well, you are probably part of the minority that thinks that way. At least in my part of the world. Not going to start a pity party here, but ive been screwed with often enough to start second guessing things. It's a two way road too, I would need to work on trust issues, and the person I...

    Have anyone tried date an hearing person?

    I didnt read what everyone said, but all the girls ive dated were hearing women. As I am single... well.. what does that tell ya ;) I think its a trust issue perhaps on my part, but its NOT all my fault. It has a lot to do with " understanding " each other, if you know what i mean. People...

    Links to the Deaf Community

    How many of you are from Maine?

    Just curious, but whenever I join some group, in a game, in a forum, in a messaging board, etc etc... I hardly ever see a fellow Mainer. So here's the question : How many of you are from Maine? I'm in Augusta.
