    Hello. How is everyone? I haven't made a post in a while. ^^ Hope you dont mind.


    Oh, I was wondering, does coughing scare anyone? I mean I know this topic has been covered but not someone else coughing but yourself coughing? I'm absolutely terrified of myself coughing for some reason. Once I start I'm afraid I'll cough too much and then v* -__-;; I always start to panic when I cough, its so terrible because in the middle of class sometimes I need to pop a cough drop in my mouth. I dont know how I'd survive without them. I instantly begin to calm down when I am sucking on one.


    Now, I've got a cold and I know tonight I'm going to wake up coughing. x_x It scares me like crazy because I can't stop and then I struggle to suppress it. Argh. Oh well, does that affect anyone as well?


    My next question is kind of ehh... but does anyone have problems brushing their tongue? Ehehe.. You know when you brush your teeth and then your tongue? Ever since I was little and had this fear I was always afraid of brushing my tongue. My parents always begged me to. I tried when I was four and ended up feeling n* Ever since then, I stopped brushing my tongue (sorry...yea very unsanitary...) Until a few years back. I've taken it up again but the thing is I can't go too far back. Its really sad. I work my way to be able to brush farther and farther but then there's the one day I accidently make myself g* from brushing it too far and then the next day I try to brush it again and its impossible. I always feel n* from it.


    Argh, its so horrible. I can't even brush my tongueright. x_x

    This may help, it helped me: Try brushing your tongue first, before your teeth. I found that it's when the toothpast gets activated and starts foaming and gets all in the back of my throat that gags me. So, I just brush my tongue first when the toothbrush has less foamy toothpaste on it, and it seems to help a little.
