In my personal opinion, living in a hearing world as a DHH (Deaf or Hard of Hearing) individual involves unique daily challenges and skills. Especially as a hard of hearing person who chooses to utilize amplification. Here are some things I've done in effort to navigate it: Learned to read lips ๐Ÿ‘„ Strain my ears, neck, and brain ๐Ÿง  Attended speech therapy sessions ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Manage listening fatigue ๐Ÿ›Œ Talk on the phone ๐Ÿ“ž Learned and mastered spoken language ๐Ÿ“ Constantly observe surroundings ๐Ÿ‘€ Learned and use assistive technology ๐Ÿ“ฑ Please note -This infographic is meant to EXPLAIN and raise AWARENESS around the difficulties and challanges many DHH individuals face and overcome to thrive in a heraing world. So perhaps we could create a more inclusive and accessible space.
