Hearing When I was younger I a serious ear infection that was so bad to the point I was unable to hear people's voices. My mom realized something was wrong with i didn't start to develope my speaking skills. As i grew up I {knowing nothing of my hearing problem of when i was younger}I felt as I didn't belong how I didn't know until a several months ago and now I feel that I should be "Deaf" Instead of "Hearing" I just don't seem to belong in the "hearing world" that I should be in the "deaf world". In class i started reading peoples lips for no reason at all but like it so if I ever miss something I can catch it. I wish all the time that i was deaf. Does this mean i have a sick mind? Am I using a deafness as an escape to sort of try and solve my porblems or something like that? If anyone reads this post and is upset by it i'm sorry.

I was in two carwrecks so I have an idea of the whole not fitting part. You don't have a sick mind. You remember from when you were a kid and that is how you developed. You were pushed from one reality to another and your mind didn't have time to catch up. Don't ever think that youre trying to escape your problems because that's how you deal. ]
I understand wanting to be deaf because no one gives you any slack for your hearing problem. They expect you to be able to hear and follow like everyone else.
I guess you have been tested in your school and by a health practitioner that specializes in hearing loss. If you haven't you should. You might even consider a hearing aide. You do need more help than you are getting if you feel this way. ]
i can understand how u can feel u dont fit in u miss little words when ppl are talking to u or u cart fallow a conversation. It not bad or wrong to read ppl lip read it is a very gd skill. Have u ever thought about joining a deaf club. It is made up of deaf ppl and some hearing ppl u can make friends and maybe make u feel more confuable. Colleges also do sign laughhuage which is alot of fun to learn. I have , i hope u figure a way to feel more c onfuable in soiiality good luck n lots of love

I don't understand your question. I'm sorry, but it's a little confusing. Are you saying you've had this hearing problem your whole life and you never had anything done about it? Why didn't your mom take you to an ear doctor and get you a hearing aid, so you wouldn't have to go through all this isolation and misery? Were you too poor to get one? How old are you? I don't know why you would prefer to be deaf. Maybe it's because you feel you would fit in better with other people who are hearing impaired. That makes sense, but if you still have some hearing, save it before you lose it forever. I have nothing against deaf people, but ask any one of them if they could regain their hearing, would they want to, and you know what they would say, "Yes!" Think of all that you are missing out on: Music, meaningful conversations, the sound of the ocean, birds, etc... Please take my advice and go to an ear doctor and get help before it's too late. If you like reading lips, take a class in that, and sign language. Even if you are hearing, there's nothing wrong with that. Perhaps you can become an interpreter. Good Luck! ]
