do u recommend that i wear a hearing aid?
Melanie P asked:
i’ve had a hearing loss since birth but didn’t know until kindergarten. i wore hearing aids in kindergarten until high school because i felt too embarassed to wear them although my mom kept encouraging me too and sometimes we had fights about it. i really don’t like the kinds that go behind your ears. it makes me feel uncomfortable and embarassed around other people. i don’t think the tiny ones would be useful with my type of hearing loss. i have normal hearing in my right ear and 80% of hearing loss in my left ear. in kindergarten we went to 2 people for opinions about hearing aids. one said no and the other said yes. i feel more comfortable without them. i had a lot of trouble at a college i was at. i was on academic probation twice. im at another college now. what do u think i should do?

Try a digital aid, they are much better than the old style aids and much more discrete. If it gets you through college surely its worth it. Anyway, aids are nothing to be embarrassed about, I’m sure you wouldn’t be fretting if you had to wear spectacles.

Honestly get Bilateral (BTE)-Behind the ear
they will improve more than you know.
Also people who wear their hearing aids make more money. No one really cares anymore I am 20 have been deaf since birth. It is more embarassing iam think to say “HUH” “WHAT” all the time. You need to wear two.they will help so much ….save what hearing you have.!
Statistically proven those that use the proper aids do better in school and make more money! its totally worth it…People wear the blue tooth headsets all the time…People dont care anymore…maybe try the open ear BTE look it up on google see if you like it
