#partial deafness

[fictionalboykisser143]

My Sherlock & Co. headcanons bc no one asked idk

Sherlock:

-tall, lanky and awkward. Like 6’2-6’3

-messy shoulder length hair bc he can’t be bothered to cut it or brush it

-chronic migraines and mild EDS

-has like three outfits and they’re all relatively the same

-wears limb braces but (reluctantly) uses a cane sometimes on flare up days

Jonk:

-ADHD

-partially deaf in his right ear

That’s it lol. I haven’t got many headcanons for Jonk if you can’t tell as my obsession lies in Sherlock, but oh well

Random Stanley Pines headcannon; that hearing aid he’s got is something he’s had since he was like, four, cause he’s been partially deaf since he was a kid and his parents thought forking over the money for a hearing aid would be more practical than trying to get the kid classroom accommodations.

Also Stan and Ford both know ASL and would sometimes talk to eachother in it whenever Stan was having a bad day and turned his hearing aids off.

Nope is a lot of amazing things a movie could offer but as someone that’s extremely hard of hearing, I gotta say the sound in this movie is fucking top tier. I’ve never had sounds alone set me on edge. They take out a lot of the background noise and it adds the perfect balance and top tier cinematic quality and sound. this movie is incredible.

Being deaf in one ear and autistic is like? Is my ear ringing? Am I hearing the electricity? Or is something actually making that sound?

It disgusts me how many adults in my life have tried to raise me as a hearing person. It's their secret way of saying, "No. We don't accept this." And to think how I'm not the only one. It happens to all of us, everyone, in different ways. And not just deaf and hard of hearing people.

I have a question for folk living outside of the US - How much do hearing aids typically cost? My dad needs one and his insurance doesn’t cover it, so I was wondering if we bought one like internationally if it would be cheaper. it’s like $3000 without insurance, so we need some help.

Me: I could go for some soft music right about now but i left my headphones at home Person: oh, here! you can borrow my earbuds Me: Thank you but I’m not putting that shit anywhere near my ears

okay friends, so i’m working on kidding around and one of the major issues is baby clint’s (and possibly baby steve’s) deafness. it is a hot inconsistent (and likely ableist as hell) mess and i need help to represent it adequately or i need to cut it. does anyone know anyone who might be willing and able to give me advice on this?

i’ve done some research, but this is an intersection of two things i don’t know a lot about: deafness and children, so I could use all the help i can get

thanks in advance
