1Link Between Hearing Loss and Depression
- This is a very interesting discussion, because
everyone want to know how are hearing loss and
depression linked?
2After study I found strong link between hearing
loss and depression among adults of all ages,
particularly in women. Actually hearing loss is a
communication disorder, not a distinct physical
problem. We need to change our think about the
condition.
3If anyone having hearing loss, even having a
simple conversation with friends and family it be
a challenge, because you are not able to listen
meaningful conversation. Good conversation is the
main key of maintaining healthy relationship. So
if you are not able to listen properly, it make
your relationships begin to suffer. That why it
is connected to depression.
The problem is many people who suffer from
hearing loss, self-manage the situation by
removing from environment where they face hard to
hear. They stop socialising and even stop work
all affect loss of lifestyle, these are greater
risk of depression.

because if you are not able to communicate
properly its affect your relationships.
Difficulty in communication can cause stress and
depression. Who face hearing loss those people
embarrassed in society, This behavior is a
leading cause of depression specially adults.
