Hello and i know how it feels.. My hearing loss started at age 15, and this year my hearing has been getting so much worse quickly to where i can barely hear my footsteps/small noises and it bothers me alot, as someone who used to hear so well its so hard to adjust especially when theres a...

Currently i have no job, i used to work in my aunt's restaurant as a dish washer but she took a vacation, so there's noone to keep the place open :( i liked my job, didnt have to take orders from noone haha i'd be one bad waiter since im hard of hearing. My dream job would be working as a...

Just remember theres someone out there who has it worse than us, it took me a bit to realize that after seeing others with disabilities that are worse than my hearing loss while going out to relieve stress this weekend, so i learned to embrace my hearing loss instead and be happy i still have...

I sure hope it is, i really do, a little update aswell, i went to my dermatologist today for the usual allergy tests and she told me im allergic to my cat :( and that allergies are probably the reason why i have some sort of hearing loss, i kind of dont really buy it but i kind of did cheer me...

I live in Chicago, Illinois, I've been thinking about getting hearing aids or maybe even a cochlear implant because both of my ears are affected but im afraid if my parents will be able to afford them and i just honestly dont want to put any more stress on them than i already did with this whole...

Also what I fear the most is completely losing my hearing, not being able to hear the voices of people i know, although i love some time of silence i dont want to live the rest of my life in complete silence. I fear not enjoying doing things i love like i used to anymore, like gaming while...

Thanks, all of you. To Deafdyke and MMcC, I have been to an ENT but it was two years ago around this month. I forgot what type of hearing loss i was told i have, but i remember I've been told i had a mild loss of hearing, and that based on my hearing tests my hearing was still within normal...
