Thank you for this. I was recently diagnosed and am a neurological hot mess in general. After I was diagnosed, I was given no options for help. They were just like “we diagnosed you, go away”
Hi Dr Murray. I have Auditory Processing Disorder, along with Dyspraxia and Dyscalculia. I've always been told that a "never" listen, by teachers, family, friends, work colleagues. Now I know why, it's not my ears, it's my brain.
@@metalshreddersc Many times Jesus uses people to help us. 🙂 see First Corinthians 12 about all the parts of Christ’s body (each person) is needed, valuable and to be treated with honour. Blessings upon your journey with Jesus Christ.

I wish I was diagnosed as a kid as well. I probably wouldn’t have struggled as much in school. I just got diagnosed at age 42 and there is very little info about CAPD in Adults. Everything I am seeing is all about kids. What resources are available for Adults. Any good apps for Adults? PS. I’m in Canada as I’m sure that will affect the resource options.
Hi Dr Murray, I have to say thank you so much for all the wonderful information. I broke down in tears from your video because I have been struggling for years with APD but diagnosed as dyslexia, but trying to explain to people what I'm going through and hearing there is hope not only for me, but for my daughter as well. I have seen the same struggles in her as I have since she was 2 yrs old. And I have been trying to get her diagnosed, and the help she needs since. She has been in speech since she was 3yrs old, but no one is listening to me that it's more then speech. Now she is 6 and struggling academically, socially and emotionally. I would love to talk to you more on how I can get her the help she needs so she doesnt have to continue to struggle her whole life like I have. Thank you so much!

It’s a huge huge struggle for me also. I feel so stupid when I can’t explain things to people in the correct way. I’ll say things like “that over there” or I’ll say a phrase like “I used to drink coffee and stuff” 😕 it’s very frustrating. I’m always vary weird around people who I feel are more smart then me so that’s when the anxiety and worry takes over and I think, I have to be as smart as this person for them to want to be around me, this person is going to lose interest in me. 😕🤷♀️ I don’t have any close friends rarely ever have. I still have kept downs and am 36 years old it’s sad. If I can’t find a business I’ll have a break down and act like a crazy person because I’ll get so frustrated.
@@mariahconklin4150 I understand your pain, I am 40 I messed up every date I have been on, and most of the people I meet think I am intellectually challenged, it's made me go inside a shell and distance myself from the world.
great video, could you possibly share some of the software and strategies that sam used and if you can also share a link to some of his advocacy work about the auditory processing disorder.
I was diagnosed with CAPD about 8 years ago, in my mid-30s. Finding any kind of treatment plan at my age has been really difficult. Everything seems to target children.
Thank you soo much for making this video. My daughter is 3 and very much like Annie. I can not wait to make her appointment to be made, only wish you were in MA.
I’ve just been told I have auditory processing disorder, but I’m 28 yrs and until the last three years haven’t had hearing problems. For the last three years It feels to me like hearing loss, but when I’ve gone for hearing tests there’s nothing wrong, can auditory processing feel like that? And is it possible for it to develop as an adult?
I was diagnosed at age 6, and I wasn't gotten any better and it's hard to get a job because I can't multi-tasking, I can't focus, I can't read or spell. I'm 27 and I don't know what to do with my life because I'm to slow to the normal eye.
Not sure what is wrong with my hearing because all of my hearing tests come back as normal but I still cannot hear. I've had problems with hearing since I was a child and I've relied heavily on lip reading all my life which is now really hard to rely on with face masks. I'm 30 now, and still have no answers. So learning about things like APD is interesting for me.
Hey I've been diagnosed with apd im 23 and have been directed to try this device called an Electronic Metronome. have been told by more than one medical person that it can help. I've tryed it out can't wait to get it in home.👍🏼
I think this article will helpful to you to know more about Auditory Processing Disorder 👉 myoccu.blogspot.com/2020/05/who-are-children-behavior-of-school.html
Did it help? I have been scouring the Internet and trying to find something that will help me. I am an older adult and I know I have this I’m trying to find some training. Thank you.
I struggle with this. I was diagnosed as a kid and I was given treatment. As an adult, I struggle with it. I tried to find some help in my area and was told the treatment was only for kids and I should try " listening better" which was so infuriating. I am still looking for help as an adult.
Growing up in ny state my parents where told I had adhd and a learning disability….. in 2013 after going to get a hearing test done I was told I had APD. As an adult I wish I new treatments and ways to help me.
I don't really know... I have APD or SPD. Thanks for the video. Well...I find it difficult to concentrate and listen to conversations in places and particular situations where there is a lot of noise and there are many different people's voices around me. Also, during remote meetings, there are a lot of eyes on the screen, which makes it a little difficult to stay calm and concentrate. Even now, it's very stressful to have a conversation with a large number of people at a meeting 😅 hopefully to sales a more versatile voice control pods in near future...
Hearing aids are one type of assistive device. There are also other assistive devices that help with apd. They are not specifically programmed for your apd need. These might include over the counter assistive listening devices. One music class is called the Listening Program and is aimed at facilitating the brain's response to sound.
I have auditory processing disorder,adhd, and a few other things as well. I was diagnosed early this year. The dr who diagnosed left the office where I got testing so I don't know how I can go about getting help for it. It was a battle to get my tests results because she up and left and there was no one to take her place or who could help. My question is how can i get help. Will i need to be tested again? I am also a college student.
Childhood trauma can lead to so many struggles. Yes, if you have significant anxiety, it can make processing more difficult. The world would be so much better if we could eliminate childhood trauma.
Hi Dr. Murray, I have APD. How can I find out about an Assistive listening device? I see a speech therapist which she is wonderful and she is working with me with Lace and different techniques but is also trying to find out how to get an Assistive listening device to try. Can you please help me? Do you have an email or phone number so I can contact you? Thanks.
Hi im just litsening your video it's great so have a question my son was diagnosed with apd just a week ago he is very very smart but he has being having some behavior problems at school could this be doing he get into this issues thanks
Auditory processing difficulties in kids can often lead to behavior problems. It can be a frustrating condition. There are two other videos on this Utah Neuro Rehabilitation channel. Often after this condition is diagnoses and managed, behavior improves.
There is another video on the Utah Neuro Rehabilitation RUclips channel: Understanding auditory processing disorder. That might help. You can also get her tested by an audiologist who does the testing.

Thank you for all those wonderful information. I have been struggling with auditory processing my whole life along with dyslexia and multi steps directions. At school I was called the lazy genius. My son is exhibiting all the symptoms I struggled with and that's how I stumbled on to your channel looking in desperation to help my kiddo. Based only on my experience and assuming that his processing of sound is very similar to mine I would like to try the assistaning hearing devise, heck I may even get one for my self if somehow thay can reduce the background noise and help me finally hear people in restaurant or really anywhere with increase of background noise. Is there any devices available on the market that you would recommend or is it strictly medical device that can be obtained with prescription. Your help would be greatly appreciated. Awesome video and thank you very much again.
You may not be able to cure it. But you can do things to help. Many things in medicine are not curable. We just manage them to try to make life better.

Yup that is what they do . People with APD need to demand teachers and professors for them to use tape recorders in class

Go to an audiologist. There not the same as a hearing test, way more detailed and takes two hours.

What's the difference between assisted device and hearing aids? What is the music class?

These might include over the counter assistive listening devices. One music class is called the Listening Program and is aimed at facilitating the brain's response to sound.
I don't know if anybody has heard of these earbuds called Nuheara but they look amazing.

You can talk to Nancy at nancy@wasatchapd.com
What exactly did you use as the "assisted listening device". Was it an FM system or low gain??
Low gain hearing aid is what I prefer.
Is it possible that childhood trauma also plays a role in this?
Childhood trauma can lead to so many struggles. Yes, if you have significant anxiety, it can make processing more difficult. The world would be so much better if we could eliminate childhood trauma.

How many types of Auditory Processing Disorders are there ? How do I know which of these I have ?
You can email Nancy at nancy@wasatchapd.com. She will answer your questions.
@@UtahNeuroRehabilitation can i also e mail her?
Yes
I wonder, what is the auditory hearing device you talk about? Is it a special device for people with these disorders or a common hearing aid?
There are 2 options:
1. A low gain noise reducing hearing aid
2. A FM system
Im 42. Is there hope for this treatment?
Yes. Do you have access to audiologist who works in this area?
Same

Will insurance pay for an assisted listening device?
Usually they do not. Some insurance companies will pay for hearing aides.

Send a message to nancy@wasatchapd.com
Do APD affect sleep?
It is possible. Someone with APD can have hypersensitivity to noise, making it more difficult to get to sleep.
How can I know that my girl has an issue
There is another video on the Utah Neuro Rehabilitation RUclips channel: Understanding auditory processing disorder. That might help. You can also get her tested by an audiologist who does the testing.

It is not aimed at treating tinnitus. There are audiologists who specialize in tinnitus. They may be able to help.
