Does hearing loss make you really tired?

[KellyC]

I used to get so tired before learning ASL. Since becoming fluent in ASL, I dont get tired like before.

It was from relying on my weakest sense to communicate with others 24/7 but now with ASL, it is more natural.

I am going to learn ASL starting in January, and my fiance will learn it with me. So hopefully that will help at home. It will be a major transition, especially for him. I imagine I will have no choice but to be exhausted from work, for as long as I want to stay in my career.
