Finding root cause for depression & anxiety: Hearing loss related?

You don’t revel your age but how long did you suffer from hearing loss? Loss of hearing can also be a precursor to dementia and I’m just throwing it out for discussion but have you been tested? Could the anxiety and depression be the beginning? Not trying to scare you just offering possibilities. There are meds you can take for these symptoms too.

Bilateral hearing loss is reveal through testing and shows steady loss. In my case I felt the need after reminders from my wife of 54 years. So my audiologist believes it started during my time in service. BTW - I am the son of a dementia casualty. My unqualified claim is my dad lost his parents when he was 2, rough times until he managed a subsistence life at the age of 12. Tough times in the '20's and '30's.
