Hi all, I am learning BSL because, at 28, I have difficulties communicating verbally due to my learning disabilities and deafness. I want to be able to communicate with my family for decades to come, and if I learn BSL, I can teach my fiancé and loved ones. ________________________________________________ My Story ________________________________________________ I was first flagged for struggling with hearing when I was under 10 years old, this was flagged in winter. I passed the hearing tests completely fine (in summer, 6 month waiting list), but my mum noted several ear infections and my "attention span" getting worse in the winter/colder months. When I was 18, I was a lifeguard on duty, struggling through a horrific ear infection in my right ear. I was sent home, but in my wisdom I decided instead to catch a last-minute shift at the local pub, as I was a waitress too and needed the income- unfortunately. I passed out and smashed my head into the wash station in the kitchen. Both eardrums perforated. I was completely deaf during college for 6 months. I regained my hearing after I failed all my A-Levels (I struggled to learn and revise whilst temporarily deaf) and got kicked out of college. I then got sent to Queen Mary's College in Basingstoke to do a BTEC ICT Course, which flagged me for learning difficulties (I got diagnosed with Dyslexia). They supported me amazingly, and I ended up passing with D*'s. Went off to the University of Southampton to do Computing, where I got flagged again for other learning difficulties; it took, unfortunately, 3 years later, when I was 23 years old, to be diagnosed with mild-moderate hearing loss. Whilst at uni, I had a lot of vertigo attacks and headaches; my balance went out the window. After working for 5 years in IT Support, I got my final diagnosis for ADHD and Auditory Processing Disorder and Meniere's Disease. I found out that weather impacts Meniere's Disease, which is why I seemed to have hearing difficulties more in winter/autumn but got better in Summer/Spring. I got a lovely Sound Support Dog during this time at work that supports me at home! She's called Ocean and is a very sassy smart Cockerpoo. ______________________________________________________ TLDR ______________________________________________________ Age: 28 Learning Difficulties: Dyslexia, ADHD, Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) Deafness: Mild in left, Moderate in Right Conditions: Meniere's Disease -

Just added a deaf pub in hartlebury to my website. they run on the 3rd monday of the month, if you view my website, dont forget to change the duration to at least a month to display this meetup. -
Hi, ok, so the Goose hosts a D/deaf Pub, which appears to be a Thursday Evening (I'll put more info on my website when they approve my FB Joining). I highly recomment D/deaf Pubs and Clubs to attend, because you get to see BSL in the real world, where as other students will sign how the tutor has taught them and (in my case) not all tutors sign the same way, so real life experience can be a huge bonus. (check out the website, just added the goose deaf pub info at deaf.mymentalwellness.uk)
