It's nothing related to my actual hearing. My hearing is fine. It's a brain mechanism that identifies sounds that is the problem. I can hear you, but sometimes it'll come out as something different. Either gibberish or something like this:
You say,"I went to the store today." sometimes this is what I'll hear,"I went to the score todum." I ask you to repeat yourself and I'm fine.
With things like movies and tv shows, it's a lot less hassle if I watch with captions or subs.
