City Lit Acquired hearing loss - feelings Scenario: A person has lost their hearing - they have a profound hearing loss. In your groups: Discuss how it might make them feel?

City Lit Psychological, social and emotional effects of acquired hearing loss Personality becomes withdrawn Withdrawal from social activities Lack of confidence Feelings of inadequacy Insecurity Anger/bitterness/ resentment Loss of identity Depression Fear of future People treating you differently Connection with ageing Stigma Bewildered

City Lit Parallel to bereavement Elizabeth Kubler-Ross (1969) How do these five stages apply to hearing loss? Denial. Refusal to believe we have a hearing loss. 'The problem really is that everyone else mutters.' Anger towards anyone related to loss e.g. ENT doctor, audiologist. 'What I need is a cure not a hearing aid.' Bargaining. 'If my hearing comes back I’ll be nicer to people.' Depression. 'I might as well give up going out with my friends if I can’t hear a word they say.' Acceptance. 'We had a wonderful holiday after all. There is life after deafness.‘

City Lit Emotional effects of acquired hearing loss Issues of identity and loss “I used to refer to myself as a hearing person trapped in the body of a deaf person.” (Music teacher) “ I was prepared for what happened, but it didn’t lessen the impact. The loss of music, which now makes no sense at all, is the greatest single trauma. Part of me has died and I am both mourner and mourned. Sometimes, it hurts more than others, but the plain unwashed truth is that it is a catastrophic loss: nothing could replace music for me. My job was also effectively at an end.” “ I used to be the life and soul of the party- but not now.” “I definitely feel as if I have lost my independence.”

City Lit Relationships Becoming deafened leads to family breakdown in over 1 in 10 cases Source: LINK 2005 “When my husband lost his hearing - I felt as though I’d lost my voice” “I felt as if I’d lost the person I knew” “ It is very stressful. A part of our relationship, in a way, has died” “Some families react like ostriches about deafness. I mean by that they try to deny that the person they love has a hearing loss”

City Lit Mental health The rate of depression for deafened people is 5 times the national average. The rate of depression for partners of deafened people is 4 times the national average. Source: LINK 2005

City Lit Employment Taking a sample of 24 deafened adults who were working before they lost their hearing, 9 out of the 24 had to give up work altogether as a result of their deafness. Source: LINK 2005
