Yes, I am Deaf. Many times when someone finds out I am Deaf they ignore me like I am stupid. It is really difficult.
I do my best to communicate with people, sometimes I think they are frightened by my Deafness!!! I get a lot of notes saying "You don't look Deaf". Too Funny!!!! So, I ask them.........Please tell me what a Deaf person looks like.

Only in groups of more than about four, since I can hardly get a word in most of the time. If I feel annoyed or angry enough, I might leave the group and try to do something else.

yes, havent we all? There are times in our life where we're either in groups or with someone, and they're the ones who keep constantly talking! Either that or they ignore you on purpose. If the first situation happens, try to speak on your opinions, and try to engage in the conversation, no matter how stupid it may be, make them notice you. If the second situation happens, best way is to find better people who will notice you for who you are, it is best to stay away from people who try to hurt you intentionally, however if it is someone you cannot get away from, a family member or a close friend, then tell them what you feel, keeping these emotions may be harmful to them later on, and most importantly, it IS harmful to yourself!!

Unfortunately, I have suffered through that kind of experience. However, I make sure to avoid those people whenever I get the chance. If it is a family member who is ignoring you, then you can ignore them.

Yes and I sought help for my anger. You might consider it, it was the right choice.
