Would it help if you directed your emotions at the actual killer? I don't see how misplacing it on others is going to solve anything other than continue to torment you.

I've found that the voice sounds more normal without wearing hearing aids, so I wouldn't worry about it. But then, I'm a guy and prefer it to sound deeper.

How's the UP sound for music to you? Since the Naida S I just came out, I am going to trial it just out of sheer curiosity even though it ranks dead last on my ranking list.

I think if you miss the crucial years for speech and language development as a toddler, you're pretty much screwed later on. Like potty training, a lot of neural wiring and connections have to be laid down to "hear".

I'm sure those 80 hours earn you a lot more than a measly $698 a month. :hmm: Besides, Congress spends money into existence. There is no limit to that other than inflation. Taxes help to keep it in check.

That's not what I remember the movie being about. It was about an intelligent kid who kept himself dumbed down for sake of his friends and social life who were nowhere as intelligent. It wasn't until his best friend chewed him out for not being motivated to aspire to his potential that he saw...

I've known of a handful of deaf entrepeneurs, even one personally. They're very rare, but they're out there. Most of the blame could probably be put on educational institutions; its not like mainstream schools teach entreprenuership; there is an perverse anti-business bias in academia.

Hearing Loss Co is out of business. Your choices are the imported Sennheiser DAI cable via B&H Photo which is attenuated, an imported DAI cable from Connevans/Oaktree which can be unattenuated or attenuated, or the Hearing Buddy which I'm unclear about on the attenuation or not. You should...

Shale oil.

As a rule of thumb, the first year's salary should cover at least the cost of the education to be a good career choice. But besides that, parents just don't understand.... :roll: And considering they haven't paid for your education, I don't think they can protest too loudly. Maximing your...

Its hard to tell the difference between overamplification and a new sound quality that takes the brain time to get used to. If its not sounding better after two to three weeks, then you might want to consider an overamplification issue and go for adjustments. Just so you know, the Naida S...

I'm currently trialing a digital Resound Sparx in linear amplification mode. I'm well aware of the numerous issues between analog and digital aids, so that issue doesn't need to be rehashed all over again here. However, I haven't worn any hearing aids for 15-years and my loss is also worse, so...

Overqualified and underpaid? Are you kidding? But, it would really depend on how much a successful SSDI application would pay out versus minimum or living wages. SSI is a joke in all circumstances and a job is always better. MG

I've been a lurker for a few years, but figured it's time I registered and formally introduced myself. I'm 37 and lost most of my hearing (95% left, 75% right) when I was almost five due to meningitis. After I recovered, my parents decide to ignore the "authorities" and mainstream me with...
