Hearing problems can affect the ability to learn spoken language and in adults it can create difficulties with social interaction and at work.In some people, particularly older people, hearing loss can result in loneliness.Hearing loss can be temporary or permanent.
The deaf rely almost exclusively on visual stimuli, like lip reading or sign language, to communicate with others. Even dimly lit rooms can pose massive problems for the hard of hearing.
Not many deaf people can lip read,but also talking about anyone while they're right there is a pretty offensive thing to do. This can make already difficult social interactions much more so, leading to feelings of alienation and anxiety on the part of a deaf person.
When someone realizes they’re interacting with a hearing impaired person, they often switch to a slower form of speech. While it’s done with the best intentions, it can actually hinder lip reading. Over time, the hearing impaired have learned to understand words when people speak naturally, so slowing it down intentionally can result in miscommunication.
