Hearing Loss and Depression
Research continues to prove a strong connection between hearing loss and depression. The two are referred to as invisible conditions, as you cannot see their effects at first glance. Because of this, their effects can often go unacknowledged, unrecognized, and untreated. Hearing loss affects one’s ability to communicate, which can cause stress, fatigue, social isolation, and, in turn, depression. Along with depression, clients with untreated hearing loss are known to experience anxiety, relationship problems, low self-esteem, stress, and other negative emotions. However, hearing aids have been found to help combat these issues.
Coping with Senior Isolation
One of the biggest issues for seniors is that their social circles begin to shrink as the years go by. Friends, significant others and family members move or pass away. Even those who still live close may be inaccessible due to limited mobility, especially once a senior can no longer drive safely. Age-related changes in one’s physical condition, such as hearing loss, can make it so difficult to communicate that it doesn’t seem worth the effort anymore. Local senior centers or agencies are great resources providing home-visitation services as well as community transportation and outings. Do you have a loved one who may be lonely? Try to put in more effort to spend time with them.

Ask The Expert
Q. How do I help someone with untreated hearing loss this Holiday Season?
A. Too often, people with hearing loss withdraw socially, even during the holiday season. Be sure to:
• Turn down the volume. Keep background music and TV at a softer volume so conversations are heard more easily.
• Face each other and stay close. It’s easier for the person with hearing loss to follow conversations when they can lip-read at a close distance.
• Encourage them to have a hearing test. It’s one of the most meaningful things you can do this holiday season.
