Things I didn't know made nose until I got my first hearing aids (at 18)

The fridge makes sounds

Windows have a sound when you open them

Fkipping a lightswitxh makes a noise

So do keyboards and computer mouses

All electronics buzz quietly eemven when theyre not being used

Dog claws tap against tile

Birds are loud

Nails click on table/phome screen/cabnets

Leg bounch cause chair to make noise

Popcorn crunch LOUD, chips cruch LOUDER

Opening blinds make sounds

Writing cause noise

Scratching mmakes sounds

Rubbing your hands together makes sounds

Dog door makes noise

Leafes are LOUD

Are more. (Add things you noticed when you first got your hearing aids)

My hearing aids in 2019

And now my first set of stickers for 2020

I hate wearing my hearing aids for long stretches of time (2+ hours) because I get like hearing fatige(probably not the roght term) where im exhausted, irritable, and start having serious trouble understanding people/things. I just get like 100% over this exhausting hearing bullshit

Saying that, todaay I had my hearing aids on almost constantly from a little before 1pm to a little after 7pm. I just want silence at this point.

Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone k ow how to fix it.

THIS IS HOW TO NOT CAPTION VIDEOS

When you do captions the only thing you do is

Say exactly what is being said

Add mini discription of voice if it is not theyre normal voice

Add description of background sounds

LITTERLY NOTHING ELSE

Mini-rant about hearing aids

I only got my hearing aids at 18 butt I've had hearing loss since I was two. So my mom's tend to get annoyed when I'm not wearing my hearing aids at home even when I'm not doing anything that needs them. But it's like why do I need to sit there is an uncomfortable loudness with my hearing aids in when I'm doing nothing that actually requires me to head it.

Hearing aid people im having a really weird bug on my right hearing aid

A couple of times a day one of my hearing aids will suddenly get really loud beep five times in a sequence itll repeat this sequence about three times in about two minutes then stop then not do it for like five hours.. It's driving me crazy and making me paranoid.
