Do you want to feel more energized? Well, get a hearing aid! As silly as that might sound, it's true. What we know is that if you're working really, really hard to hear, listening fatigue is probably happening. So what that means is that if every single moment you're trying to keep up with the conversation, and let's say for example somebody starts talking about a topic, you didn't catch what it was, and now they're continuing to talk, and then some people start to laugh and some people say, "Well, I would get brown," right? I'd get blue. And you're thinking, what are we talking about? So you're constantly in this catch-up mode and feeling like, I don't know what's going on. And that can ultimately make you just exhausted. And so what we know is that with hearing aids, it actually can help keep you caught up in the conversation so you feel like you know exactly what's going on. Your brain actually works less hard to hear because hearing is easier with your hearing aid, and then everything just works.
