#deaf effects

Something no one talks about: deafness and loss of balance. I lose my balance, mid-walking, at least once a day. I’m deaf. It’s annoying to nearly fall when you’re just trying to walk. Loss of balance is a symptom of deafness. Being deaf doesn’t just mean a person can’t hear sound, it means their entire life is affected by the loss of sound. Even their physical body is affected by deafness. The psychological and emotional impact of deafness is a whole different post though 🤟
