    • Close Hearing Loss & Deafness
      : Sensorineural (Moderate)

      I have a severe hearing impearment on both ears. I just started to wear hearing aids on a daily basis and that is because I decided to be more aware of all the noises around me. Wearing hearing aids was kind of a torture, it used to drive me crazy, I used to get strong headeaches. When going out socially I get in panic mode. Little by little I stopped going out in groups. I am in my own world.
