I have serious hearing loss. I'm challenged if I don't have my hearing aids in.
I have to concentrate more intently when people speak. I always have to position myself on their right side so that I can hear out of my left ear. I sometimes get a crick in my neck from listening. But I don't there's too much else.
We honestly cannot hear sometimes because the audiences are so loud.
I didn't wake up one day and just couldn't hear. I woke up one day and realized I was having difficulty, and that I had overcompensated by lip reading, so that I didn't really understand how bad it was.
Not only was it nearly impossible to hear because of these huge rubber ears we had to wear, but we also had these huge furry hands which were absolutely useless, especially if you had to scratch yourself.
Although I'm deaf in only my left ear, when there is noise all around, I'm unable to distinguish sounds and can't hear anything.
When somewhat at a distance, I cannot hear the high tones of instruments, voices. In speaking, it is not surprising that there are people who have never noticed it, for as a rule I am absent-minded, and they account for it in that way.
I hadn't really noticed that I had a hearing problem. I just thought most people had given up on speaking clearly.
The highest tone is hard to hear.
Have you ever noticed that when you must struggle to hear something, you close your eyes?
