Getting Comfortable with Your New Device
Just like any other big change in your life, you can expect a short
period of getting comfortable with your new listening device. You’ll
suddenly hear things that maybe you haven’t in years: a dripping
faucet, that old grandfather clock, footsteps, traffic noises and
even the sound of your own voice! This can all be a lot to take in if
you jump in feet first, so we’ve put together a few helpful tips and
tricks to ease your transition and get your hearing back closer to
where it belongs.
1. Be Patient —
By far the most important; understand how much
you can handle and remember that the biggest journeys start with
a single step.
2. Start Slow —
Don’t overdo it. Your first impulse may be to
plug in your new listening device and head out into the crowd.
But be cautious, you can surprise your hearing and risk becoming
frustrated with the sounds you are adding back to your listening
world. Start off wearing your listening device for no more than an
hour at a time and do this throughout the day several times. Also,
be sure to avoid noisy places at first.
