life wont get easy automatically after you leave highschool - you'll still have the communication issues and the large group setting social issues, but out in the real world you tend to find people who are much more mature about it, even though they may not be 100% understanding of your situation. You'll still get the "retarded person" looks from other people - but you'll also encounter people that may not know sign but they may have a relative who is deaf such as the safety manager at work. Her niece is deaf.
