Question:
Is it possible to deafen yourself intentionally? If so, how?
i know the middle ear or inner ear has to be affected to achieve total deafness. Also, is there a way to do this painlessly?
Answers:
The only way I know of to deafen yourself intentionally is to have all of your organs of hearing surgically removed. And no it is not painless it is major surgery on your head. But you don't really say why you want to do this? If it is a ploy for sympathy then I would say you need psychiatric help because this is not a normal way to feel. If you have an ear problem like ringing there are other treatments that will help with the problem. I gave birth to a deaf girl and her life has been a living misery. People are cruel to those who have disabilities. Losing one of your senses deliberately is not the answer. Seek help. By the way I do not think any surgeon in the country would help you destroy your hearing anyway.
