Does anyone know of any connection between hearing impairment and depression. I am not talking about later onset but for lifetime hearing problems. I saw somewhere that stated that there is a higher incidence of depression in the deaf/HH community? any thoughts?
I am being treated for major depression. I have been in and out of the hospital for the last 8 years. I know being HH doesn't help but...I have been HH all my life. I am 55 now. Feel like I don't belong to either the Deaf community or the hearing community.
