Silent Struggle: How Hearing Health Affects Cognition - Paperback

by Bc-His Doug Dunker Aca (Author)

Hearing loss is invisible. But its impact is hard to miss - loneliness, confusion, frustration, even early memory problems. Some people call it "just aging," but untreated hearing loss quietly reshapes your brain, your mood, and your relationships.

Do you have concerns about how your loved one's hearing loss affects their social life, family activities, or involvement in the community?

Silent Struggle pulls back the curtain on the emotional and cognitive toll of hearing loss and offers real solutions. With empathy and straight talk, it explores:

• Hearing is a brain issue; ears capture sound, brain interprets it.
• Untreated hearing loss leads to isolation and mental fatigue.
• Tinnitus relief: sound therapy, CBT, and effective hearing aid help.
• Families: encourage gently, speak clearly, avoid pushing.
• Better care model: treat hearing as essential, not optional.

Backed by research. Written with heart. Designed to help you reconnect. Whether you're experiencing hearing loss or supporting someone who is, Silence Struggle will help you understand what's really happening, and how to take the next step.
