Have any of you ever come close to passing out? If so then was it like for you?

[Clavicus Vile]

For me, at first sounds started to become muffled and distant, like they were getting farther away and harder to hear. Then I began to feel really tired, the world started to fade away, I had this peaceful euphoric feeling.

When I stopped compressing my carotid arteries, everything sprung back to normal, and I had temporary lightheadedness and still had the euphoric rush, but both went away quickly.

One second I was perfectly fine, the next second I fell to the floor completely disoriented. I had almost fainted for no apparent reason

I have a some sort of genetic issue that causes extremely common fainting. It often feels like your body starts to lose control and strength rapidly, and everything gets distant, muffled, and blurry. If you don't quickly get the blood flowing back into your head, you'll suddenly wake up on the floor, very disoriented until you realize you passed out.

everything went black and next thing I knew I was on the ground. I thought it was just a normal dizzy spell to begin with but evidently not

 

[tired as fuck]

It started with dizziness and lightheadedness, then I started feeling air come out of my ear canals and had vertigo, my breathing was irregular. Happened while I was working out (nothing too crazy, some pushups and situps). Felt like throwing up, but also like I was about to lose consciousness like when you're sleeping. I somehow managed to go down the stairs into the kitchen and get some water+salt for my blood pressure and then water+sugar for my blood sugar. Went away after 5-10 mins. According to my parents I was paler than ever. Not a great feeling.

Yea, I fell of the roof and ended up at the hospital with a broken face. I was conscientious the whole time thanks to adrenaline, till I was about to be released the later that day. All of a sudden I think the effects of blood loss and the adrenaline fading hit me. Vision was fading, hearing muffled, heart beat felt slow, tinnitus, limbs being heavy managed to fight it off but felt weak for like 5-6 minutes.

Almost drown once about 10 years ago. No idea how I even reached survived honestly.

I just remeber struggling to reach air. I was trapped somehow under a boat that tipped over in deep water. But at the last second before my head left the water I felt this empty calm, that everything is fine.

No idea if it’s cause my body thought I was going to die, or if it knew I was close to the surface.

 

[Akedia]

I can’t remember ever actually passing out, but the times I came close, my vision got really blurry, my head suddenly felt super heavy, and I felt like everything was spinning. I had to lay down and rest my head on something. Threw up like 5 minutes later.

Years ago I went to the bathroom, then suddenly felt my body fall and collapsed on the shower, I then realized I only passed out for 5 minutes.
