I've had the same experience my entire life. That said, testing shows my hearing isn't great, but it's not horrible either. I even have an exceptional ability to identify actors solely by their voice when others can't identify them at all. I've often wondered if there is something else going on that runs deeper than just surface level "hearing". Like I'm hearing slower but more deeply.
- SllX 4y agoI don’t know if I’m hearing more deeply, but basically the same experience: failed every hearing test I ever took but I’m not deaf either. Just need to rely more on post-processing than others, and the best I’ve been able to figure is I didn’t get enough socialization at critical points of my early development, which is true, I just can’t prove that it’s also related to my hearing.

I seem to experience sound differently than other people. Separating voices from background noise is HARD, but I'm also very good (I think) at recognizing actors by voice.
