I assume that it is the lack of communication that speeds up dementia, not the hearing loss. This means you should learn sign language and go out and meet people. There are treatments for anxiety and depression, so go and get help for that.


I have not heard anything that would indicate that Deaf people who are socially active would have any increased risk for dementia. Just people with hearing loss who are not included socially due to the hearing loss.
