Having #AuditoryProcessingDisorder is like playing Mad Libs in real time while having to come up with a response Yeah, friend, that sure was just like a (NOUN) from the sounds of things!

Having #AuditoryProcessingDisorder is like getting the worst parts of being both hearing and #HardOfHearing It's all of the background noise and chaos while getting the least amount of clear speech and spoken communication

Has anyone else used an #AlphaStimDevice ? It's been very helpful for my anxiety and some of my headaches, but I'm curious what others do while it runs. It makes me very dizzy, and I'm having to use it in the morning to avoid it messing with my sleep. #AlphaStim

It's so absurd that society has normalized #Disability being measured largely on how those around you see it and are impacted by it. My #HearingLoss doesn't seem significant to those around me, but a few weeks without my hearing aids and I'm desperate for an easier way

TIL to not say yes to a clarifying treatment at my blowout hair appointment. Learned the hard way it strips hair dye off. What a day.

T minus two days until I get my hearing aids back and try to convince my audiologist to prescribe me a backup pair so I don't have to buy a set entirely out of pocket 🤞🍀 #HardOfHearing #AuditoryProcessingDisorder

10 days without my hearing aids. Ran a few errands, which included spending two hours in a waiting area, and a muscle in my face is literally twitching this shit is so exhausting. Desperately need to obtain a backup pair to avoid this in the future.

A friend's father is in town on business and has told friend that he keeps seeing my name on reviews for every place he wants to try. Google said I'm a top 10% reviewer, but I think I'm just a #yapper and the internet is my captive audience

I get that cliffhangers are a thing, but I just finished #OnyxStorm and that last chapter really explains what I'd previously thought were overly low ratings. Can a book just be a book? It feels like we got 50% of the next book instead of an ending to the last.

"They'll know you." Oh. My. Effing. Gods. Y'all have a box of tissues handy when you get to the last 20% of Onyx Storm, trust me. #OnyxStorm #TheEmpyrean

Being chronically ill and having a weeks-long stretch of time where I feel absolutely horrible and low energy with no clear reason. I have googled, I have double-checked the medications, I have no clear symptoms beyond huge amounts of fatigue and this is BS

I recently bought some curtain hooks (the U shape kind you screw into the wall on either side of the window) and today Squatch the Spousal Unit did a ten minute dissertation on how he loves them and never even bothered to put up curtains before we got together. Boujie for the win.

Day 4 without my hearing aids, and I'm over it. Trying to do my #Duolingo lesson, trying to listen to audio books, hell, even music sounds dramatically different. I'm pro-Deaf community, language and culture, but living in the in-between is BS. #Deaf #Hearing #HOH #APD

Day one (day zero?) of my #HearingAids being in the shop for repairs, and I'm beyond exhausted and had totally forgotten how much work being #HardOfHearing is. Be nice to your Deaf/deaf, Auditory Processing Disorder and HOH friends, folks, it's a lot.

If you're protesting tomorrow: "I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present." MEMORIZE THAT, because aside from asking if you're free to leave (or providing ID if you're in a stop and ID state), that's the ONLY thing you ever say to cops.

One of my party facts is that according to polls, Americans believe foreign aid is about 25% of the federal budget and on average that it should be about 10%. The actual number is less than 1%. Foreign aid has long been a boogey man of the right, so it's not surprising they're vilifying it now.

Imagining what it would've been like as a 14 year old in my sex ed class to learn that also some people aren't interested in sex and dating and/or don't experience that kind of attraction. Instead I went on to be very confused for 2 decades.

Being hard-of-hearing is keeping your earplugs next to your hearing aids on your nightstand. Never know when someone will snore- or, worse, try to talk to you

A couple of things. 1. Ableist language, like any variation of "tard", is unacceptable on my page and will not be tolerated. 2. Any racism, including demeaning of immigrants, Arab and Muslim Americans, and Black and Indigenous people, will not be tolerated.
