Post up if you or anyone you know does, what it looks like and what it feels like if you experienced it. Google shows a lot of epileptic people and I'm not epileptic but I think I may have just experienced one or some shit.

Well I think the passing out comes after intense 'light headed' for to long.

Hold your breath, you will get light headed, if you keep it held, you will pass out.

I would look it up. Feeling light headed can be a sign of a health condition, but anything can cause it like standing up to fast / drop in blood pressure.

I stood up from laying down and walked into my bathroom to piss, got light headed, lost balance, managed to pull off a perfect form squat into bathroom door/wall, fell on the floor, proceeded to flop like fish until my golden retriever came in and saved me. I was laughing when it happened and totally coherent like "wtf why can't I stop, this feels weird as fuhhhhh ahaha." Then I thought damn I'm having a stroke and dying. Then my golden retriever came in the room and it stopped about 5-10 seconds later and I stood up like nothing happen. But then I didn't have to piss anymore, illuminati confirmed?

I didn't drink a lot of fluids yesterday is the only thing I can think of.

E: I added humor to this because the thought of dying is pretty gay. I'm 100% serious though. I even called my mother and she said "you sound okay now!" I had a teacher in HS who had seizures all the time and was fine so not sure of the protocol. Just looking for people with similar experiences. First time this has ever happened

My BP is usually very good to low, 70/120. I was taking a medication several months ago that lowered BP. I would get extremely dizzy and light headed anytime I stood up so I quit taking it. A few times I thought "for sure this is the time I pass out!" But I always focused on breathing and it passed. This time I didn't have time to think, I just fell down.

I noted it on my calendar. If I have another one I'll go to the hospital or go see my neurologist. From what I've read, if I was still conscious/lucid, an EEG isn't going to detect a "partial seizure" or something like that.

I didn't eat a lot/drink nearly enough water yesterday and was awake for 29 hours. I'm gonna chalk it up as over stressing + not enough gas in the tank, for lack of medical terms. Cloudkicker can tell me why I'm dying and when.

what med were you taking that affected blood pressure, and did you tell the physician who prescribed it to you that you were going to stop taking it? sounds like orthostatic hypotension initially but then you say you were moving around uncontrollably? you should see a doctor dude

Was called clonodine, yes I told my doctor and he said to stop taking it because it was making my BP drop very low and I was constantly dizzy/light headed.

Yes my arms were involuntarily shaking and my mind was very foggy like there was a lack of oxygen, but I was totally conscious and sitting there trying to make it stop. Maybe me trying to move and make it stop was actually making me shake, I have no fuckin' clue shits never happened lol.

I drank BCAA's for the first time about 12 hours before this happened..................
