Hi, I'm new hear and accepting the worsening of my condition. The biggest issue I have is talking over the phone, especially to call centers, customer service reps, businesses etc. I've got around a lot in the past having someone make the calls for me. Even signed over medial rights to family members to handle issues because they only talk to the insured.
What hurts the most is that I try my best to read someone's face, hands in person, and still some I can't make it out due to turned backs etc. When I finally break down tell them I'm hoh it's they'd rather ignore it and pass on me, like a non person. Sure to them ignore it and deal with what they know. It really hurts.
Maybe I can "talk" with a psychologist and it may help, but as far as I know they only deal with people that hear.
Any helpful comments are welcome. It's really hard for me to discuss this.
