My boyfriend is hard of hearing and i tend to speak really fast, or lick my lips halfway through a sentence, or i change my pace and tone. It makes him really sad bc he can’t understand me and i feel awful, so im just here looking for tips on how to speak clearer and slower. I’m not sure why it’s so hard for me to change the way i speak but it is, any tips help. thank you. EDIT: He has scar tissue on his ear drum and slight hearing loss from concerts. I found hearing aids at walgreens’s for about $100 it is the audien hearing atom ones. has anyone heard of them or have any feedback insurance won’t cover really anything for hearing aids
