You’ve seen the videos on TikTok. Babies hearing their mother’s voices for the first time after getting a hearing aid. Sometimes, at first, the baby is resistant. When the doctor attempts to put the hearing aid in their ears, they fight against it. They may cry before they smile with delight. They’re overtaken with a host of emotions. They are not sure what to expect. But finally, their hearing is restored and the world suddenly opens up. These videos can even cause joyful tears for those watching them.
But this life-changing moment could occur for anyone.
You’re not alone if you’re feeling apprehensive about getting hearing aids. You don’t have to be a baby to feel a little wary of this new experience.
When individuals of any age experience hearing aids they may cry tears of joy, let’s discover why.
The sweet sound of music
You may not have even noticed it. It advanced so slowly. You don’t take pleasure in music like you used to. You’re just not that into it now. At times, it is even aggravating. And the louder it gets the more annoying it becomes.
It isn’t simply volume that is effected by hearing loss. In some cases, only certain notes of sound are impacted.
All musicians know that the notes flow together to make a single sound that resonates as waves move into your ears. If you can’t hear the splendid complexity of music, it’s just not the same.
When you use your hearing aid, suddenly you can hear those once-missing tones. Once more, music comes alive. It was once a great pleasure in your life and now you have it back.
A child’s laughter
Do you recollect the sound of a child laughing? You may have forgotten this beautiful sound experience if you’ve chosen not to use your hearing aids. Rediscover these captivating moments with your grandkids by restoring your hearing.
Restored relationships
Relationships can be substantially strained by untreated hearing loss. People get frustrated. They tend to argue more. It can even cause a person with hearing loss to seclude themselves, so they don’t feel like a burden.
While others are talking and enjoying each other’s company, the person with hearing loss will feel disconnected and will often isolate themselves.
Hobbies less satisfying so you’ve given many of them up?
The simple act of getting your hearing back will revive your relationships with a significant other, siblings, children, and friends.
Learn to talk to one another again. Have long talks. Do all of the things you love with the people you love.
If you’re missing this in your life, it’s time to reconsider that hearing aid.
Feeling more secure in your home
Do you feel anxious about what you can’t hear? Would you hear the voice of a hurt loved one yelling to you from the other room? Would you hear the doorbell, oven timer, or smoke alarm? Would you miss the phone ringing when an important call was coming in?
Do you stress that you won’t be able to hear oncoming traffic or pedestrian signals when out for a stroll?
These “what if’s” can make us feel unsafe in places where we should feel entirely confident. But when you use your hearing aid, you can be more confident, and enjoy life to its fullest. You’ll experience peace of mind.
It’s likely you don’t know how much you’re missing
You might not even be aware of what you’re missing, much like the babies who hear their mother’s voice for the first time. Hearing loss advances gradually in most cases. It’s possible that you’ve forgotten what hearing well is like.
You’ll be blown away when, suddenly, you can hear again. You’ll wish you addressed it sooner. Think your hearing loss isn’t that bad? Contact us today to schedule a hearing test and discover what you’ve been missing.
