  • @TLCgirl123 i am 12 too! and i have hearing aids. Ive had them since i was two and i get how you feel, i felt so left out and was afraid to wear my hair in a ponytail . I still dont wear my hair in a ponytail, i dont know why, your comment helped me though

  • I've needed hearing aids since I was 7, had them prescribed to me at 13 and started actually getting my head in gear and wearing them about a year ago, so now I have about 25 years of lost sounds to catch up. Feeling really isolated with the quality of expertise on my rare type of hearing loss, audiologists obsessed with what is "discreet" and tiny instead of something I can hold in my dodgy arthritic hands (yes already!) and which is bold and pretty and COOL! Not beige. 

  • I wear hearing aids also. Although i dont wear them much, i dont really like wearing them for many reasons. I might be getting new hearing aids soon because my hearing has got worse :)

  • im 11 and i wear hearing aids too in both ears. and the last time iv them to the ear doctor he said i was getting 2% better hearing and thats better that nothing and he also said the technoagy have come this far and in the future the will be a surgery for it and i want that surgery lol and it dont bother me neither =)  some kids make fun of me of it but i daont mind it because its who i am and im proud of it.

  • Good job, I have a moderate to severe hearing loss since birth. I had to work hard in my hearing loss and speech. I used wear analog hearing aids for 30 years and now I wear digital hearing aids. It helps me a lot with my speech.

  • You did a good job. I am hard of hearing too since birth. My hearing got worst when i got older too. I have both ears are moderate to severe. My right ear is weak to hear than my left. I used to wear analog hearing aids for 30 years. Now, I wear digital hearing aids. My speech has improve a lot better in my word test from digital hearing aids. I am thinking to get Phonak Naida blue hearing aids next. Good job!

  • You did a good job with this video. I am hard of hearing person too since birth. I have both ears moderate to severe. My right ear is weak than my left and both are close to severe. I had to go speech therapy when I was young. I used to wear analog hearing aids for 30 years. I wear digital hearing aids now and it had been helping my speech and hear things clear than before.

  • Hi gabriella1012, my name is stephanie and i'm an industrial design student and i'm working on a project right now where i'm trying to design hearing aids for teens and young adults. What is the one major problem you have with your hearing aid right now? some people have told me they fall out easily, some way that they often forget to put them on in the mornings. let me know your problems, it would be a lot of help and hopefully, i can help make them better. thank you

  • i wear hearing aids and i have a few suggetions i am 14 yrs old and i wear a hearing aid in the right ear and when i run the wind is all i hear and one that is durable against loud noises like drums

  • thank you so much for the great explanation! my son is deaf but he is really young and i really have no way of knowing exactly what is happening with him.you gave an insight for me to understand part of his experiance.your'e a wonderful little girl .

  • i suffer from a ruptured ear drum in my right ear and i have a slight-mild hearing loss. not sure about how many decibles it is but my ent says that my hearing is not bad enough to where i need a hearing aid. but over the years my hearing has gotten a little worse due to the ruptured ear drum. sooner or later i might have to get a hearing aid

  • My left ear is moderate hearing loss and right ear is mild hearing loss.

  • That's not too bad.

    I am suffering from moderate - Severe hearing loss in both ears.

    Good Luck

  • unison unitron hearing aids

  • How bad is your hearing loss?

    I have been suffering from mild to severe hearing loss and I am looking for a good hearing aid.

    I heard many people saying that they had bad experence with hearing aids and they don't benifit from them.

    What brand are your aids?

  • yes they can help and depends on the hearing loss you have and  it can't make you hear 100 %. ever.

  • hey do hearing aids really help u hear people talking better

  • when you turn it on about half way it beeps? is that just to inform you its on or to inform you its half way i guess the button is to cutoff noise when your on the phone it whirrs i think its called telecoil

  • my friend was in a state of shock when he found out my other friend doesnt know yeat because im afraid he will make fun of me but then again hes more muture than the other one as of right now im 24 and looking for a girlfriend shes out there somewhere

  • i have the same as her the top button cuts off the volume and shes right about the testing

  • i have just one question whats under the flap ubove the volume is that to test it ? and the button on top of that when i push it the button on top it beeps or somthin

  • It is normal and i was never made fun of because i wear hearing aids. Make sure you get a warranty on the hearing aids in case of stolen or lost.I asked my mom something i should say to you.Are you going to get the color hearing aids? I think color hearing aids are so cool.

    thanks and from Jennifer.My name is not jessica but i hope you have a good day. write me back thanks.

  • hey got mild hearing loss so do hearing aids really make a differeance in ur heaing like people taliking n stuff?

  • do hearing aids really make it easier to hear people talking?

  • don't worry hearing aids are cosmetic and you won't be made fun of.

    I got my first hearing aid at age 16 and people just know me with wearing hearing aids.

  • Jennifer, you are fantastic! I know it's tough. I've gone through just about every hearing aid there is. I lost about half my hearing. So I don't belong to the hearing community. And I don't belong to the deaf community. It doesn't matter how much hearing you've lost, once you have those hearing aids you're part of a select group. And my ears stink when I leave them in to long. All the best, Jeff

  • lmao how mean!

  • I am HH too. I found out in college when my lecture notes didn't match my friends for the same class! I struggled so much to hear that by the end of the day I was exhausted from the effort. I became more isolated as I just couldn't hear others in the cafeteria or coffee house. When I first got my hearing aids, I was STUNNED how much I had missed. It explained a great deal about the strange looks people gave me.

    Thanks for your video.

  • Dude I so relate and my name is Jennifer too:-)

  • i am hard of hearing too
