So far I'm not disappointed! I don't want to give out any spoilers for those who haven't seen the new epps... But OMG!!! YES!!! :D

I liked her for her roles in Juno and Hard Candy.

I still have yet to talk to a CI Specialist about it, but I think I'm leaning more towards a no mostly because of the risks. I worry that it might work out for me for awhile, but what if it doesn't a few months after? Or if it creates more problems? I'm not against it, just a lot to think about...

Just came out as lesbian :D:cheers:

They suggested group therapy first... *face palm* Well, that lasted for 2 days, back to individual therapy lol

Hashimoto's thyroiditis or chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis is an autoimmune disease in which the thyroid gland is attacked by a variety of cell- and antibody-mediated immune processes. It was the first disease to be recognized as an autoimmune disease. It was first described by the Japanese...

I don't mind telling people I'm deaf, or even writing, I don't know why I just feel very freaked out.

So I found out recently that I have Hashimoto Disease and that explains a lot of things that I've been going through lately with my thyroids throwing my body completely out of whack. It's basically when the immune attacks the thyroid mistakingly and is actually a pretty common thyroid disease...

I can handle going out when I'm with people I know better than I handle going out being alone. But if I'm alone I instantly feel anxiety, when someone is talking to me and I don't catch whats being said I tense up and freeze.

My evaluation for a Intensive Outpatient Program meet was.... so-so. My case manager wants me to first try a group therapy..... and she knows I'm deaf but I'm not sure how I feel about it. I know I need to at least try it but something tells me I need one on one counseling.

I feel the same way :( I'm having issues adjusting

Trying to get into therapy hoping it will help me out, I'm still struggling with depression and anxiety.

Just out of curiosity, those of you who have become late deafen, did you experience PTSD from the loss? I ask because even though I have been deaf since kindergarten (right cochlea fried from fever,left degrading slowly) My left is almost the same as my right and now I feel like my hearing aid...

Thank you all for your input it means a lot to me, truly. I'm still exploring the options and it sounds very 50/50 that it could be great or it could fail. would love to hear more stories. Posted from Alldeaf.com App for Android

I just need to learn so much about it... I'm afraid that if I do it then it will only work for a few months and then not be a benefit to me and then I'm stuck with this in my head. There's so many questions. I'm very neutral about it.

I know that Manga :) I just didn't know if the government did lol

You both have excellent points. Ok here's my thoughts. I will always be deaf either way and I don't mind the subtitles though I get tired lip reading sometimes. I need, I really need to become more fluent in ASL. I know my social anxiety is becoming worse. I only text on the phone because...

My older Audiogram back 2011

Shes not the first one to recommend one to me. I'm supposed to be meeting with a CI specialist soon.

Hey everyone so I went to a new audiologist for a hearing exam and found out my hearing is actually getting worse. I'm not getting enough clarity with my current hearing aid (it's not very old a few months) and she advised that I got a cochlear implant. My right has complete loss my left seems...
