Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Oh, I see." Jounouchi replied, then smiled at Malik, "Maybe you could teach me a bit more English though. It's a useful language to know."
((I-I guess... ^^;;
Oh um... thank you... but the panic attacks aren't trigger-based... they're random. It's not something I can control just by staying mentally strong. They just happen out of no where... so I dunno if I can ever stop them without medicine...))

Jounouchi frowned, "I think I'm passed the age where I can learn a language that way..."
((Erm... mine were never that extreme... o.o I mean... they really freaked me out, and the first time I told my mom about them I was in tears, but I think the worst thought about them I ever had was... ah, this is kind of embarrassing... I told myself I would've rather had to have cancer than deal with panic attacks. XD;; I was so immature and didn't understand how horrible cancer was at the time... *shoots self*
Um... but well... I don't really think mine are the kind that can be helped with a counselor... there are a lot of different kinds of panic attacks, and I have two types. One is non-trigger, meaning they just come for no reason, and the other is trigger, meaning they come for a specific reason. I almost never get the non-trigger ones now that I take Paxil and the trigger ones aren't as extreme anymore. But... panic attacks for me are... not a mental thing... it's like a physical feeling, where I feel hot and claustrophobic, and kind of dizzy... everything seems kind of fake and it's hard to breathe... it's like... that feeling you get when you here really bad news... like if you find out a loved ones been in a car accident or something... that's the only way I can describe it. And so this feeling would just come and go for no reason. Now it's mostly only triggered by being in certain places, like churches and craft stores... I can understand why churches cause it, but I'm not sure why craft stores do. XD;; See it's like... not some childhood trauma involving craft stores. Being in them just causes me to have panic attacks. ^^;;
And don't worry, you're not being annoying. I appreciate your concern.))

Jounouchi frowned, "I dunno, I think it's a lot easier for some people to learn foreign languages than others, and especially for kids it seems easier..." he said thoughtfully.
((I agree with some of the mentality thing but I don't think that's true in a lot of situations... I mean, I've taken tons of cold medicines and such that I expected to work, and they never did, and then after all those let-downs, I started to believe that cold/allergy/whatever medicine didn't work on me, so then when my mom would make me take it I wouldn't expect it to do anything, and then sometimes it ended up working regardless.
I mean, the pills really do seem to work regardless of my mentality, because I did try to go off them once, and I was confident that I'd be able to because my doctor said there was a good chance I'd outgrown the panic attacks, but they ended up coming back withing a week or so...
I've always been a pretty sickly person, but it's never seemed to connect much with my mental health... I get sick far more often than most people, but I seem to get depressed less often than most people so... I dunno. I'm definitely interested in trying a different medicine, but the first time I tried to go off it without a substitute wasn't very long ago, so I don't think I'd be able to do without some type of panic attack medicine.))

"Yeah, but I didn't pay any attention to English class until high school." he laughed nervously, "And even then it was minimal."
((Gah, I'd probably be dead by now if I couldn't handle meds. XD;; I'd probably have an asthma attack and suffocate from it. Gosh that would suck. *is medicine-reliant* =D
Oh, by the way, someone sent me this fic and it is the most on-crack Death Note fanfiction I've ever read. XD;; Yet... the plot actually makes sense and seems possible, in a comical sort of way... it's just very... odd... and yet it's somewhat serious and sexy. o.o It's only a one-shot, but it's kind of long, so maybe you can save if for later, but if you like L/Raito, then you should definitely give it a read. XD It's hilarious.))

"Eeeh...?" Jounouchi scratched the back of his neck, "Ah... I dunno what to say... I'm really no good at English anyway..."
((Meh, who knows? XD
I love L/Raito, but I kind of sort of almost hate Raito... he's definitely one of my least-favorite characters... which seems funny, considering how similar he is to Kaiba, yet I love Kaiba. XD;; But the pairing is so obvious and it involves L, so I luff it. <3 L, Rem, and Mikami... best characters ever...))

Jounouchi blinked, thinking over what Malik said before responding, "Ah, ye-yes, fvery maachu..." with a thick Japanese accent.
((In case you couldn't tell, he said, "Ah, y-yes, very much..." XD;;
Ah, well I'm good with throwing Mello in that list as well, as long as we don't have to take Rem out. ^^
She's not evil! D: She is just indifferent to that she doesn't care about! D: She only killed L and Watari because of how much she cared about Misa, which shows how compassionate of a soul she has once she finds someone worth reaching out to. Rem is probably the most 'human' of the Shinigami, except maybe Jealous, because she can relate to human emotions like love or disgust. Plus, she hates Raito as much as we do. wink I dunno, even though she caused three of my favorite characters' deaths (L, Watari, and her own), she didn't do it for evil purposes and it's not like she would've if it weren't for Raito.
Raito has so many fans it scares me! O_o I mean... most people seem to hate Misa, yet love Raito, and I'm just kind of like, "WTF?! gonk Misa can be annoying and she definitely has a malicious side, but at least she isn't a *complete* b***h like Raito!" Ugh, Raito's sense of justice is ridiculous, and then once he starts his own good will takes over him and turns him into a monster. I like Raito a lot when he isn't possessed by the Death Note, so maybe that's why I like Raito/L so much, since most of their time together was when Raito was 'good...'))

Jounouchi's face went red, "Sh-shut up!" he whined, "I told you I wasn't good in English!"
((Ooh, that's scary. D: I'm sorry hun. I've found silverfish before, but it was always just like one in the shower or something... probably because Arizona isn't humid, so they're not common here. They're not dangerous, and I actually think they're kind of cute but... I know how much you can hate bugs. XD;; How many are there? o.o And they probably weren't in your room because of messiness; those bugs feed on things like cloth I believe... not old food. ^^;;
I'd come over and take care of them for you if you're willing to pay my airfare...
Oh, speaking of which, my mom said it's okay if I go to California over the summer. ^^ So now as long as I can find someone to go with and have enough money for the trip, I should be able to make it. <3
You and your grudges... XD
Yeah, I somewhat like Misa, because she's at least killing for love, instead of a warped sense of justice, and she actually prefers to not kill...
Gah, I was so mad when Raito went b***h again! D:< He even tricked his good self to help clear his name!!))
