3 is somewhat true for me. I've experienced lots of headaches in my childhood but now, it happens once in a while. I just go through it and wait for nighttime where I can sleep early just to get rid of headaches. Hearing fatigue is also real. It annoys me that everyone keeps on asking me if I can hear because I wasn't fully focused. I can get exhausted and angry to the point where I want to turn off my processor. My parents don't really understand that kind of thing and expects me to hear 100% perfect. I don't mind noise. Perhaps, it's because of my musical taste. I'm into very loud music like metal, rock, noise, harsh noise wall etc. I enjoy ringing and static noises in the background because they make me think a lot which is a big issue as well. It takes my focus on communication away 😅 4 and 5- in my college, I can't listen to lectures and writing. I have to copy others' notes. Fortunately, my professors allows it and gives me extra classes through one to one communication. Everyone is always fascinated with how I change my batteries and they ask me questions about it. Called me a "cyborg." It's funny but I had lots of fun 😂 In my school, it was not definitely like that and developed my anxiety 😑 I hate going to cinemas because there's no subtitles on movies.
I feel your pain im not only physically disabled in a wheelchair I also am hard of hearing one cochlear implant one hearing aid and trust me I've had people do that to many times. I've also had people to tell me oh you in wheelchair with hearing loss how do you make it through life lol. Im not any different than anyone else there are ways to make it in life. And I know asl it was my first language English is second but point is some people don't know how to deal with persons whom have disabilities or like I say handicable lol. Im capable of doing things like able hearing peoples I just do it differently. No such thing as perfect either. We are here for a purpose and that is to live the best life we can and keep moving forward till our day comes where we aren't needed and or our purpose is fulfilled and its time for us to leave earth.
