You can feel as if people aren’t understanding of your upset and how even the thought of needing a hearing aid can cause sadness and even frustration and anger. There could be an array of reasons that you are feeling emotional about the topic of hearing devices and although your experience needs to be respected because it is yours, you may find it to be motivational to understand how important your hearing could be to staying as independent as you like to be and protecting yourself and others.
