Thread Name: I can hear!
Subject: RE: I can hear!
What usually happens with me, is that discordant sounds overpower everything else I hear, and it drive me absolutely crazy. I guess I have to admit I was a bit unkind at a song circle last month, when all I could hear was what sounded to be very loud conversation in the next room. It made it almost impossible for me to sing, since I could hear the conversation but not the other singers. If a guitar (or especially an Autorharp) is out of tune or off tempo, I become completely unglued - and sometimes I'm not very nice about it. I'm just not able to "tune out" sounds that don't fit, and it makes singing very unpleasant for me when that happens.
Will hearing aids help solve this frustration for me?
