I use to faint a lot when I was younger and I would get really hot and dripping sweat, dizzy, weak, my ears would ring loudly and I couldn’t hear very well things just sounded very fuzzy, it sucks and it’s not fun at all!
Fainting sucks! It happened to me once and was very frightening. I got very hot out of nowhere and felt as if all of the energy in my body left immediately (hard to describe it). I ended up walking a few feet before eventually collapsing.
Same, today I got a blood sample at a hospital and it made me faint, I got really hot and sweaty plus and I couldn’t hear well at all things just sounded fuzzy and low, It felt horrible
SAME I just fainted minutes ago I felt nauseous, dizzy, lightheaded and I felt ringing in my ears so as I tried to get my breakfast I felt the symptoms again so I wanted to lay on the couch but I had a black out and I fainted near the glass table in my living room 😅
If someone is about to faint and they know it, and they manage to tell you in good time (because their legs may have stiffened-up, they feel hot suddenly, their hearing has gone distant and their head starts to swim), quickly lay them down on their back and lift their feet/ legs up to about a 45-degree angle i.e. definitely higher than their head. If you hold their legs there it should prevent the person fainting, but it depends how far they've gone towards it. Trust me, it's much better than the old-school approach of sitting down with your head between your knees, although I appreciate that it may not be possible to get someone on the floor quick enough if they are very old or obese. How do I know about this? A surgeon told me, but that wasn't until I'd fainted 30+ times during my lifetime (that is not an exaggeration btw; I've fainted 3 times in the past year alone). Actually, the raised-legs thing is probably a good idea even after someone has fainted, because it will get blood back to the brain quicker. When they start coming round you may want to lower the legs though, so that the person can just lie comfortably. And it's probably best to turn their head to the side or put them into the recovery if feasible, just in case they vomit from shock. You could loosen their clothing (neck ties, top buttons) and take any headwear off too. Personally, my own fainting is usually down to 'white coat syndrome' or Googling medical stuff, but for others it can be due to general anxiety about a situation they're in, or excess heat. It's not a bad idea to give the person a drink of water afterwards, but if you know them and/or you're sure that it's not a problem allergy/ intolerence-wise, you could get them a Mars bar or something sweet to eat, just in case the episode was due to a sugar crash. It will likely help to pep them up regardless, however don't try and sit the person up too quickly; they may need five or ten minutes lying still before they feel up to moving. Once they've recovered they should be able to move normally, although they may feel somewhat drained. While someone is fainting it is normal for them to sweat profusely, their eyes may flicker/ roll or even stay open, but they should come out of it enough that they're able to respond and talk to you within a couple of minutes. If they don't, then it could be a fit or something more serious, so you may have to consider medical intervention.
Hey guys I faint on the regular and if any of you have questions on how to care for someone who faints or completely passes out reply here! I’m happy to help! And if there’s any one who relates to me I’d love to hear from you! I have reactive hypoglycemia. That means my body produces too much insulin and it eats up all the glucose in my body and doesn’t leave any for my brain. This leaves me feeling confused, anxious, and tired followed by excessive sweating, dizziness, nausea, and then I faint. For me “fainting” is never passing out fully, best way to describe it is a half state of consciousness. Everything will go white and fuzzy, I can’t hear very well yet everything is too loud. If you cup your hands over your ears and then talk that’s basically what it sounds like. I can’t control my muscles very well. I have no concept of time so a fainting episode can be 20 minutes long and feel like a minute or vice versa. No it is not curable and absolutely nothing helps except keeping food on me at all times. Thanks for reading my paragraph! Have a great day!
Hey! Since you have experience with fainting, what exactly should I do when someone faints? There are a lot of varied answers. Should I lift the legs? Should I put some water on their face? A lot of confusion with .e.
@@parvchetri0995 all are great. If you see someone who’s about to go down try and catch them, don’t try and hold them up but definitely make sure they don’t hit their head. If they are unconscious do things to stimulate them like rubbing their arm or hand. Saying things like “hey my name is …. And I’m here to help, hey you need to try and stay awake, I know you want to go to sleep but you need to wake up” they should come around. Elevate their feet and you can rub their calves to to try and stimulate their brain so they wake up. When they come around, explain what happened, try and get them to sit up so they can get blood circulation and try and get them to eat, a sucker, a candy, a granola bar, juice… etc. just remind them that they are ok and safe and make sure you call 911 if they are not waking up under 15 seconds, or if they are seizing or dead. If the person wakes ask if they need medical because I personally do not want medical called.
hi! i’ve been very close to fainting a few times due to my low blood pressure. the worst it’s gotten where i’ve sweated, got hot, blurry vision and i would see colors. somewhat of hearing going out but not really. i’ve never fainted tho. what do i do in case i do faint? any aftercare? if i’m home alone?
@@innerpeace-n8l hey hey! If you feel it coming on, it’s important to lie down or do the Asian squat (it increases blood flow to your brain) and contact someone who can reach you quickly or make sure you end up alright. If you’re really worried, don’t be afraid to call paramedics, it’s their job to help! Aftercare would be eating something, drinking water, and lying down. Fainting can leave you feeling weak for awhile after so it’s important to take it slow and be patient with your body! If you’re home alone make sure to text or call someone and let them know what’s going on, lie down on the floor or your bed, and take deep breaths and focus on yourself. Something’s that help me when I feel that I’m going to faint is picking an object and focusing on it, and counting to ten. The most important things here are communication with someone, and protecting your body from injuries if you faint. Let me know if you’re worried about anything else!
I fainted today. I started feeling sick then my vision went blurry. I blacked out and woke up a few seconds later. I was so weak my uncle had to carry me to the shade. Then I chugged water. Scary stuff
I just experienced fainting for the first (and hopefully last) time yesterday. I just got out of the shower then I started feeling tired out of nowhere, trying to catch my breath resting my head on the counter. I tried to get my clothes on but I started feeling dizzy. My vision then got pretty blurry and dark and I couldn't hear anything then I just woke up lying against my bathroom door. I hurried to get my clothes and phone out of my bathroom and hurried to my room because I didn't know what the hell was going on, but then my vision got blurry again, and I fell onto my bedroom door. However I made it into my room but I just fell on my bed instantly. Luckily I didn't faint a second time in a row.
Damn... i fainted today out of hunger.. everything went black for like 1 second and i woke up.. i was out for only 30 seconds, but i felt like 3 seconds
@@ParkviewHealthThat also tends to happen to me too, you see I don’t really like going out, exercising, walking in long distances, standing too long, going up and down the stairs, or even doing hard work all those things make me dizzy, tired and sore, and I do tend to collapse and faint because I lose my balance when I can’t hold my pose
Sounds like high blood pressure me or maybe you're just getting dehydrated also from all that salt I don't know I'm not a doctor but I would look into that
I know I faint sometimes from getting up too quickly my mom said it's cuz I don't drink enough water but even when I drink tons of water that happens so there's also that I think it can happen if you get up too fast
I was with a couple of my friends outside, it was in the middle of july and extremely hot. I started to feel dizzy, my ears started ringing, and i fainted on the sidewalk. It was scary 😢
Today my dad fainted, i caught him so we didn’t get hurt but man it was scary, his eyes were open as well. Just watched this video in case it happens again. Right now he is in the hospital but he’s okay, he just has a bad fever
@@dontreadmyprofilepicture9482 I passed out and my dad caught me mid-fall, he was angry and thought I was messing around but I just stretched too intensely I guess. Hurray for fast reflexes lol
I have fainted 6 times and it’s not fun because it makes you feel nauseous and the only way to fix that is by eating and it makes it feel like you don’t want to eat and you feel weak the whole day
1. You should rise her legs that the blood in the legs can pass through the brain, 2. Stand her head right side, then check her pulse, when she wakes up spill some cologne in her face that she breathes cold, that will help her sober up, Don't try to give the person anything to eat or drink, not even water, until they are fully conscious, then give some water. She may then have headache, because she'll probably bump her head somewhere, don't panic, it'll be alright, it just happened to me a few days ago...
Yeah when I fainted it was because we had been in the car all day and I was purposely not drinking water because I didn't wanna have to stop and pee. We got home and I fainted in the kitchen. Dad sat me down and made me eat dinner with a full glass of water
iI'll add a couple of things here. One of the things you can do to help is get something to put under their legs and raise them up. This will help get more blood flow to the brain. The other thing is this: There's a lot said here about giving people water and in some situations that's a good thing. DO NOT give anyone anything to eat or drink unless they are fully conscious.
I heard my dad collapse in another room. I watched him stood up and faint again. I didn't know what to do. His eyes were open but he was unresponsive. He was laying on his side and was too heavy for me to move. All I could do was call for help, and watch his breath and heartbeat hoping that today was not the day I lose somebody. After a few minutes, his consciousness came back and it was as if nothing happened. In the 21 years of my life, that was my firsthand experience in dealing with that scenario, and to top it off it was a close family member. It made me realize how uneducated I was in the matter. All those lectures in high school about it went over my head
I played seven seconds with my friend and I passed out when I woke up I heard static and it slowly went away it felt like I skipped an episode of a series all of the sudden I am lying on the floor crying not knowing why when I was Justin standing a couple of seconds ago
Here’s my fainting experiences!Once I got an MRI, and the whole time my mom was looking down at me. When I was done I got up and as the nurse was talking to us she fell, open eyed, straight back into her arms. Apparently she was unresponsive, and about 9 other people rushed into the room. Traumatic.. Another time we were outside putting up Christmas decor when I looked over at my dad, and he was on the floor kinda laying down, on the sidewalk. I ran over to him and got his phone. I called my mom, and she took him to the hospital. We didn’t know what was going on, and the doctors didn’t know either. I cried all night until I knew he was ok. (No one knows what happened…..) Today we were at a roller coaster park (just me and my sister) and I was talking to her when we were in a line. I was on my phone and noticed she didn’t respond. She kinda looked through me and took a few steps back. She then fell flat on her back, onto the floor. The whole line stopped and looked at her. Somebody started to dial 911, and another person screamed “SHES HAVING A SEIZURE” (I couldn’t tell if she was twitching?) my heart literally stopped. About 30 seconds later she sat up (I don’t think anyone called 911 all the way) We made sure to get her water, and I was a crying mess on the way home. (I was having flashbacks to the last two incidents) Due to the heat it had to be a heat stroke. They were all super scary, and I really hope nothing ever happens to you guys 🙏
It sucks to pass out I passed out on a ride at a carnival it was a really fast one and my head and jaw and body just felt weak and my head felt light and I blacked out 2 times but after that I went to go get some food and water and then we left cause I felt like puking and I got carsick but I’m ok now! 😀
Try and walk with someone when you go out on a hot day.my sister and I were walking around when I started to feel dizzy and light headed so my sister who is in med school knew what to do to keep things under control I still fainted but it could have been worse if my sister wasn’t there.
I fainted in November and I don’t really eat and when I fainted I felt it coming and I felt like throwing up and I took my phone out and like said something to a friend saying I think I’m gonna faint then EVERYONES voices went all weird and I grabbed onto stool then like I think I pushed my peer tutor? Cuz I heard her say “ woah uhh, are you ok?!” I couldn’t see it was all black and stuff and I felt my hand holding the counter then I heard a stool move idk if I moved it or idk but then I was on the floor and my peer tutor was sitting by me trying to ask me if I’m ok and I didn’t respond for a while I was out for like 3/5 minutes I started to get the blurry/black vision at 11:19am I went down around like 11:22am or something then I came back around like 11:24am or something and when I got up my classmates were scared I’m kind of wondering why they didn’t get the fricking teacher :/ cuz I was out for a while and I wasn’t responding for 1, and I probably looked pale
Don't call the ambulance in the USA - that will cost the person an insane amount of money. At least give them 5 or check if it's truly an emergency faint. Fainting is pretty common.
@Baker1777 If it's a head injury then yes call the ambulance. However, a lot of people faint from simple dehydration or a temporary drop in blood pressure. Those aren't worth the cost of an ambulance in the USA. Most health insurance companies are run by scammers & will charge from the deductible or deem the trip unnecessary if they can.
@@Jaxzyn yep I’m here to figure out what happened to me today. But get this I took my grandpa to the doctor and brought my dad with me. I brought him in so the dr can tell him that he can’t drive as his behavior the day before got so bad I had to call the deputy (non emergency) to calm him down. He has really bad dementia. So the dr starts talking to him and the next thing I knew the dr was up in my face 😂 everything happened so quick. I felt a little off and was trying to shake it off but I went from 1-100 in a matter of seconds. It was like when it all hit at once I couldn’t move nor speak I just slumped over. Everything was a blur. Doc said “looks like someone needs a nap” 😂 and checked my heart and offered water and the medical assistant came in to offer a lollipop 😂💀 so yeah. I couldn’t have fainted in a better place 🤦🏽♀️🥴😭
I fainted earlier at school, my legs starting feeling weak I couldn’t hear well, I started to not be able to see at all so I saw pitch black I started wobbling then smashed into the floor and this was in assembly
I fainted today well I didn't fall but during woodwork we were watching our teacher show us were to mark on the wood that's when I got really warm and dizzy 2 seconds later I found myself leaning over the desk I got help by one of my friends and got to sit down and drank water and had some fubes from my lunch box after I gained again pretty scary event for me today
I went through this before I had texted my aunt and told her I felt like I was about to faint I had dizzy spells she came and got me while I was outside and sat me down while emt was talking to me and in the middle of the conversation I was told my eyes rolled in the back of my head and I was unconscious for 7 mins I couldn’t hear anything it was totally black all I remember seeing was my late brother who had recently died I didn’t have a pulse the emt brought me back around when I came to I couldn’t remember anything nor what happened I couldn’t even tell you the day and time it was so scary I thought my family was going to have to bury me
I fainted on July 28 2022 and it was scary My mom took me to hospital on July 29 2022 and the doctors found out that I fainted due to stress as life was stressing me out back then On August 2nd 2022 I was given the all clear and allowed to go home
One time when I was on vacation I remember my dad suddenly throwing up and then fainting a few seconds later, after that moment I’ve grown a fear of seeing people throw up or faint and I watched this video to know what to do if I see it happen
she is already halfway to the ground when sitting. Why have her stand up? If possible just go immediately down. standing up can hasten a fainting. Then you have to catch them.
I fainted and it’s hard to describe but my legs felt numb and then I all I saw was black and I woke up a few seconds later and my parents say that it was 30 seconds and that my eyes were open and that I was stiff I also fell backwards and they asked some questions and one of the questions were what were you going downstairs to get and I couldn’t remember. It’s super scary and the some of the doctors said it might have been a seizure. Some seizures you don’t shake.
I have fainted 6 times what you have to do if it happens is put your legs up when you wake up and definitely have something to eat after and you will deal nauseas but that goes away by eating and you will feel weak for the rest of the day
My friend said a kid fainted in the school hallway and i saw her on the ground so if that happens i just want be safe incase another kid faints near me and no one is around
I used to faint but when I was about to faint but not yet I just fainted but my legs were locked and then I got up and I didn’t remember what happened but I watched this it helped me remember what happened to me.And I got sent it to the ambulance to the hospital and they had to check me out the doctors
My symptoms of fainting is first waking up with my stumach tucked in alot, Idk why then later I would feel shoulder and back pain with nausea then shaky legs and cold sweats and eventually things get blurry then dark and I can't hear much anymore then blackout. I only experienced it 2 times before but this is my early symtoms
I think- not sure. I might be on the verge of fainting. I dont know how to explain, but I cant see, I hear ringing, I get dizzy and hot for no reason and at random times. I dont know if I can stop this. I drink lots but I keep having this happen.
When I was in school It was the last day of school and we had field day and it was my last because I was gonna go to 6th and then we were running in the heat (it was like so hot outside) and we didn’t drink any water and I felt dizzy,weak,nauseous I felt like I was gonna faint so I took a break but I didn’t drink water.. and then my friend got mad at me for not playing with her.. LIKE GURL I WAS ABOUT TO FAINT
I fainted in class on Tuesday and today is Thursday. I went to school yesterday but I didn't feel right today so I stayed home today. It was also my first time. I was lucky sitting down. pure embarrassment
I fainted today in my music and I was sweating because we were Dancing for 30 minutes and I started going I guess you can say like my vision went darker then I fell (from what I was told) then I woke up on the ground
I love to make fun of myself on this story! I threw out my back n was bed ridden for about 3 days straight, but was still eating like normal. Well after a few days nature (#2) called so I crawled (cause of my back) to the bathroom and started doing my biz (#2). After about 10 seconds I woke up on the ground. I had fainting! Well yes my boxers were around my ankles and yes my legs had 💩 all over them. Tried to clean myself best I could n crawled into the shower. Needless to say that’s was an interesting call to my wife at work...😂 Next time I want Celina to make a house call to help me 😏.
I Faint Mostly When I'm Sick And When I See Blood For An Example When I Cut Myself On Accident By Trying To Do Something I End Up Feeling Faint Cause Of How I See Blood Or When I Don't Feel To Good❤❤So I Hate Fainting
i guess no consent is required just go around grabbing at peoples arms , she didnt even know she actually broke the first rule but whatever im sure this video isnt about first aid
2-4 slaps to the cheeks wake up most women. Alternatives - splashing cold water in the face, smelling salts. Then raise their feet to increase blood circulation to the head.
I use to faint a lot when I was younger and I would get really hot and dripping sweat, dizzy, weak, my ears would ring loudly and I couldn’t hear very well things just sounded very fuzzy, it sucks and it’s not fun at all!
Same but except that I keep getting really bad headaches and light lightheaded
exaclty the same
What did you do about it
@@livialex7980 tbh i just got hydrated, i found out for me it was due to lack of water.
You have problems in vestibular system means may you have ear infection or other damage in ear so consult with ENT specialists

She may then have headache, because she'll probably bump her head somewhere, don't panic, it'll be alright, it just happened to me a few days ago...
Don't spill that on people, they might be intolerant for all you know.
Wouldn't that only work though if it's a blood reason why you fainted like getting up too fast which is one of my problems
I have fainted a few times . And most of the times just drinking water and eating something helps
Yeah when I fainted it was because we had been in the car all day and I was purposely not drinking water because I didn't wanna have to stop and pee. We got home and I fainted in the kitchen. Dad sat me down and made me eat dinner with a full glass of water
I have fainted 6 times not fun at all
iI'll add a couple of things here. One of the things you can do to help is get something to put under their legs and raise them up. This will help get more blood flow to the brain. The other thing is this: There's a lot said here about giving people water and in some situations that's a good thing. DO NOT give anyone anything to eat or drink unless they are fully conscious.
i agree with all of this. especially if the person is dysautonomic or has other heart or blood pressure issues.
Ok I was gonna shove a sandwich in the person’s mouth and move their jaw to chew for them but I’ll keep in mind that’s a bad idea.
I have pulmonary hypertension and everytime I climb a flight of stairs I faint at the top. It lasts for about a minute
I heard my dad collapse in another room. I watched him stood up and faint again. I didn't know what to do. His eyes were open but he was unresponsive. He was laying on his side and was too heavy for me to move. All I could do was call for help, and watch his breath and heartbeat hoping that today was not the day I lose somebody. After a few minutes, his consciousness came back and it was as if nothing happened.
In the 21 years of my life, that was my firsthand experience in dealing with that scenario, and to top it off it was a close family member. It made me realize how uneducated I was in the matter. All those lectures in high school about it went over my head
I played seven seconds with my friend and I passed out when I woke up I heard static and it slowly went away it felt like I skipped an episode of a series all of the sudden I am lying on the floor crying not knowing why when I was Justin standing a couple of seconds ago
Here’s my fainting experiences!Once I got an MRI, and the whole time my mom was looking down at me. When I was done I got up and as the nurse was talking to us she fell, open eyed, straight back into her arms. Apparently she was unresponsive, and about 9 other people rushed into the room. Traumatic..
Another time we were outside putting up Christmas decor when I looked over at my dad, and he was on the floor kinda laying down, on the sidewalk. I ran over to him and got his phone. I called my mom, and she took him to the hospital. We didn’t know what was going on, and the doctors didn’t know either. I cried all night until I knew he was ok. (No one knows what happened…..)
Today we were at a roller coaster park (just me and my sister) and I was talking to her when we were in a line. I was on my phone and noticed she didn’t respond. She kinda looked through me and took a few steps back. She then fell flat on her back, onto the floor. The whole line stopped and looked at her. Somebody started to dial 911, and another person screamed “SHES HAVING A SEIZURE” (I couldn’t tell if she was twitching?) my heart literally stopped. About 30 seconds later she sat up (I don’t think anyone called 911 all the way) We made sure to get her water, and I was a crying mess on the way home. (I was having flashbacks to the last two incidents) Due to the heat it had to be a heat stroke. They were all super scary, and I really hope nothing ever happens to you guys 🙏
It sucks to pass out I passed out on a ride at a carnival it was a really fast one and my head and jaw and body just felt weak and my head felt light and I blacked out 2 times but after that I went to go get some food and water and then we left cause I felt like puking and I got carsick but I’m ok now! 😀
I fainted once and i only stayed unconscious for what felt like 10 or 15 seconds my dad stood right in front of me probably confused
What happens if someone ‘faints’ with their eyes open?
*Madam, one should get them into recovery position*
Never fainted but my boyfriend has quite a few times, I think it may have to do with his anemia and want to be of help
Great info
I just fainted today and it’s really scary and you just get dizzy and stuff goes slow then you faint
Try and walk with someone when you go out on a hot day.my sister and I were walking around when I started to feel dizzy and light headed so my sister who is in med school knew what to do to keep things under control I still fainted but it could have been worse if my sister wasn’t there.
I fainted in November and I don’t really eat and when I fainted I felt it coming and I felt like throwing up and I took my phone out and like said something to a friend saying I think I’m gonna faint then EVERYONES voices went all weird and I grabbed onto stool then like I think I pushed my peer tutor? Cuz I heard her say “ woah uhh, are you ok?!” I couldn’t see it was all black and stuff and I felt my hand holding the counter then I heard a stool move idk if I moved it or idk but then I was on the floor and my peer tutor was sitting by me trying to ask me if I’m ok and I didn’t respond for a while I was out for like 3/5 minutes I started to get the blurry/black vision at 11:19am I went down around like 11:22am or something then I came back around like 11:24am or something and when I got up my classmates were scared I’m kind of wondering why they didn’t get the fricking teacher :/ cuz I was out for a while and I wasn’t responding for 1, and I probably looked pale
Don't call the ambulance in the USA - that will cost the person an insane amount of money. At least give them 5 or check if it's truly an emergency faint. Fainting is pretty common.
@Baker1777 If it's a head injury then yes call the ambulance. However, a lot of people faint from simple dehydration or a temporary drop in blood pressure. Those aren't worth the cost of an ambulance in the USA. Most health insurance companies are run by scammers & will charge from the deductible or deem the trip unnecessary if they can.
@@Jaxzyn yep I’m here to figure out what happened to me today. But get this I took my grandpa to the doctor and brought my dad with me. I brought him in so the dr can tell him that he can’t drive as his behavior the day before got so bad I had to call the deputy (non emergency) to calm him down. He has really bad dementia. So the dr starts talking to him and the next thing I knew the dr was up in my face 😂 everything happened so quick. I felt a little off and was trying to shake it off but I went from 1-100 in a matter of seconds. It was like when it all hit at once I couldn’t move nor speak I just slumped over. Everything was a blur. Doc said “looks like someone needs a nap” 😂 and checked my heart and offered water and the medical assistant came in to offer a lollipop 😂💀 so yeah. I couldn’t have fainted in a better place 🤦🏽♀️🥴😭
I fainted earlier at school, my legs starting feeling weak I couldn’t hear well, I started to not be able to see at all so I saw pitch black I started wobbling then smashed into the floor and this was in assembly
Went I was in kindergarten,I faint and my friends call teacher and I faint because I'm tired,and thank god I'm safed❤❤
YOU ARE PRETTY
I fainted once when I stood up too fast. I think I have iron deficiency because I start blacking out if I stand up to fast and I lose my balance.
I hope you okay!
I fainted today well I didn't fall but during woodwork we were watching our teacher show us were to mark on the wood that's when I got really warm and dizzy 2 seconds later I found myself leaning over the desk I got help by one of my friends and got to sit down and drank water and had some fubes from my lunch box after I gained again pretty scary event for me today
Check your haemoglobin. You might be anaemic
I once fainted in the accessible toilet in a hospital as the result of having Crohn's Disease about 10 years ago. It was horrible.
I actually fainted on a train recently while standing up and now I think I’m super injured. I wish I would have known the symptoms of fainting.
What if she doesn’t have a pulse? Please include what ifs and what to do after
I went through this before I had texted my aunt and told her I felt like I was about to faint I had dizzy spells she came and got me while I was outside and sat me down while emt was talking to me and in the middle of the conversation I was told my eyes rolled in the back of my head and I was unconscious for 7 mins I couldn’t hear anything it was totally black all I remember seeing was my late brother who had recently died I didn’t have a pulse the emt brought me back around when I came to I couldn’t remember anything nor what happened I couldn’t even tell you the day and time it was so scary I thought my family was going to have to bury me
I faint a lot during my childhood. Now I am adult it happens sometimes but it is rare, mostly when I don't have enough oxygene.
I fainted on July 28 2022 and it was scary
My mom took me to hospital on July 29 2022 and the doctors found out that I fainted due to stress as life was stressing me out back then
On August 2nd 2022 I was given the all clear and allowed to go home
Same I fainted during my math year exam
“Have you received the experimental shot?”
my 4 year old cousin fainted two times :(
I am sorry
One time when I was on vacation I remember my dad suddenly throwing up and then fainting a few seconds later, after that moment I’ve grown a fear of seeing people throw up or faint and I watched this video to know what to do if I see it happen
Ive Only Fainted Once In My Life When I Was Below 1 Years Old And I Hope It Never Happens Agen
Good info but the background music was very loud and unnecessary. Hard to hear.
she is already halfway to the ground when sitting. Why have her stand up? If possible just go immediately down. standing up can hasten a fainting. Then you have to catch them.
I fainted and it’s hard to describe but my legs felt numb and then I all I saw was black and I woke up a few seconds later and my parents say that it was 30 seconds and that my eyes were open and that I was stiff I also fell backwards and they asked some questions and one of the questions were what were you going downstairs to get and I couldn’t remember. It’s super scary and the some of the doctors said it might have been a seizure. Some seizures you don’t shake.
Understanding our bodies.
I almost fainted Today I was coming out of middle school to the bus then I saw stars, I felt super weak and nauseous.
I have fainted 6 times what you have to do if it happens is put your legs up when you wake up and definitely have something to eat after and you will deal nauseas but that goes away by eating and you will feel weak for the rest of the day
My friend said a kid fainted in the school hallway and i saw her on the ground so if that happens i just want be safe incase another kid faints near me and no one is around
I used to faint but when I was about to faint but not yet I just fainted but my legs were locked and then I got up and I didn’t remember what happened but I watched this it helped me remember what happened to me.And I got sent it to the ambulance to the hospital and they had to check me out the doctors
Where are we going to get ice packs in the middle of a field on a hot day?
I thought you were meant to put people in the recovery position?
My friend fainted today
you mean, 3 months ago🙂
I'm happy to see this vid tbh even though I have never fainted before😅
My symptoms of fainting is first waking up with my stumach tucked in alot, Idk why then later I would feel shoulder and back pain with nausea then shaky legs and cold sweats and eventually things get blurry then dark and I can't hear much anymore then blackout. I only experienced it 2 times before but this is my early symtoms
I fainted today and I threw up too :( it was a scary experience + I fainted at school.
I think- not sure. I might be on the verge of fainting. I dont know how to explain, but I cant see, I hear ringing, I get dizzy and hot for no reason and at random times. I dont know if I can stop this. I drink lots but I keep having this happen.
We encourage you to speak with your medical provider about your concerns.
Well done
Sometimes if I get up too fast I'll faint because all of the blood that rushes to my head
I fainted and my dad didn't believe me so I didn't believe it either until all y'all decided exactly what I had felt like
When I was in school It was the last day of school and we had field day and it was my last because I was gonna go to 6th and then we were running in the heat (it was like so hot outside) and we didn’t drink any water and I felt dizzy,weak,nauseous I felt like I was gonna faint so I took a break but I didn’t drink water.. and then my friend got mad at me for not playing with her.. LIKE GURL I WAS ABOUT TO FAINT
I fainted in class on Tuesday and today is Thursday. I went to school yesterday but I didn't feel right today so I stayed home today. It was also my first time. I was lucky sitting down. pure embarrassment
Call an ambulance? Really? Wow never would have thought to do that...
What about leg raising?
I almost fainted today in p.e, I was so confused when I got up, let myself just fall because I know I need to chill
why don't more parks have trees to shield you from the sun?
literally almost fainted minutes ago and watching this so i can self help better next time LMAOOO
I fainted today in my music and I was sweating because we were Dancing for 30 minutes and I started going I guess you can say like my vision went darker then I fell (from what I was told) then I woke up on the ground
I fainted a few times at school last year and my best friend was so kind she would catch my head
What does it mean when a person fainted and theynshale afterwards for maybe 3 secs?
My mom passed for more then 15 minutes and those 15 minutes were scary
That’s nuts what if people faint because they’re excited!
i have a fainiting problem but my nephew don't believe me
I ended up smoking a little weed yesterday and passed out was it the weed
Har! this happened last Tuesday second time I passed out in my life
I love to make fun of myself on this story! I threw out my back n was bed ridden for about 3 days straight, but was still eating like normal. Well after a few days nature (#2) called so I crawled (cause of my back) to the bathroom and started doing my biz (#2). After about 10 seconds I woke up on the ground. I had fainting! Well yes my boxers were around my ankles and yes my legs had 💩 all over them. Tried to clean myself best I could n crawled into the shower.
Needless to say that’s was an interesting call to my wife at work...😂
Next time I want Celina to make a house call to help me 😏.
I Faint Mostly When I'm Sick And When I See Blood For An Example When I Cut Myself On Accident By Trying To Do Something I End Up Feeling Faint Cause Of How I See Blood Or When I Don't Feel To Good❤❤So I Hate Fainting
This happens to be 2 times in 2 days
Kind of stimulate them, got it!
my friend adam fainted so im watching...
Is salinea
Checking pulse is a waste of time. Check breathing only.
I fainted the first time my wife talked to me
I will never get fainted because I have asthenophobia.
She forgot Step D: Does the person have a wallet? If so, now would be a good time to take a gander ...
i guess no consent is required just go around grabbing at peoples arms , she didnt even know she actually broke the first rule but whatever im sure this video isnt about first aid
My grandpa fainted :(
Celina 😍
2-4 slaps to the cheeks wake up most women. Alternatives - splashing cold water in the face, smelling salts. Then raise their feet to increase blood circulation to the head.
Thx
You're pretty 😍
