    going to college as a hoh/little "d" deaf person

    Hi! so I am starting college next fall and I am wondering what accomodations I should take advantage of. I wear hearing aids and one-on-one or with just a few people I can hear okay as long as my aids are on. In a classroom setting? forget about it. Can't hear anything. I've been learning...

    I’m late deafened and find myself not being able to identify with either hearing or deaf world. Anyone else feel the same? Trying to find my place.

    Hi! I'm in a similar situation, but my hearing loss isn't profoud. I'm in the moderate/severe range and I identity as HoH. I began losing hearing in middle school and it never felt relevant until adulthood and I started working, by then it was bad enough that I couldn't use the phone or work...

    New here, hello!

    Hi! I'm Bridget. I'm HoH. I've probably been HoH my whole life or at least most of it but I didn't know until I was in the 7th grade and had one of those beep tests at school. Which I failed. I ignored it for a long time, and now It's gotten bad enough that I can't ignore. I had to quit my...
