Have you ever fainted?

[Karifean]

I've never fainted, but closest I've been to that would be my vision going dark once when I took a bad spill on a biking trip. Not a pleasant experience.

[FFNut]

I've been knocked out when I've played hockey but never fainted. Don't know if it would count.

[Ayen]

Never.

[blackmage_nuke]

I've fallen asleep during inopportune moments but I have yet to faint.

I remember passing out on the train on the way to school. The train had stopped and these weird things boarded the train that made us all feel sad and depressed. I remember feeling quite embarrassed as none of my friends passed out. Luckily, one of our teachers was on the train and gave me some chocolate. I felt much better after that.

Can you point out for me on the bear where the teacher 'gave you the chocolate'.

I can't recall ever fainting, but once while out shopping with my mom and sisters, I collapsed in the bathroom of a department store during an endometriosis episode. I couldn't move my body or my head, my vision had narrowed down and blurred and I was just lying there on the floor unable to move while people came in and out. It was not awesome.

I have fainted once, if you call it fainting. I was on Holiday in Cyprus at the time, and we were in a restaurant. It was ridiculously hot and the seating was in like an open plan outside. I passed out for a moment at the table and then come too and ran to the toilet to be sick (sorry if anyone is eating)!

Only once, last year. I was getting multiple vaccination shots ahead of my trip to Thailand and normally they were supposed to be spaced out, but because of the timeframes involved I couldn't have that luxury. I don't have any problem with injections, never really have since I was a teen, so when I got light headed I didn't know what was going on. I nearly fainted, but the doc caught me before I slumped over in my chair and told me to get on the bed and lie down for a bit. I honestly don't know if I completely fainted or not, though, because I pretty much remember the whole thing.

Never thankfully, although I did do the choking game when I was 12 where I blacked out for a couple of seconds, if that counts.

[Formalhaut]

I gave blood once and didn't rest enough after it. Half way home, I felt a bit faint so decided to take a short break in a bus stop.

Woke up on the ground. No idea how long I'd been there.

Did no one help you up?

I have a similar experience. I gave blood for the first time two years ago, and felt absolutely fine after it, besides the sense of smugness you get from doing it. Anyway, so I had to go to the toilet (as they tell you to drink plenty of water) but the nearest toilet were up on the top floor of a department store. The lift was also out as well for repairs. I didn't think it would be that bad, so I took the stairs.

By the time I got to the top floor, I was up four flights of stairs and felt ready to pass out. I felt incredibly light headed. I practically dashed to the gents, and locked myself in a stall and sat down for what must be like ten minutes. I didn't faint, but it was the closest I ever felt to it. By the time I left, I developed an incredibly cold sweat.

[Shauna]

It was a bus stop near my house, at which there is like one bus per hour. Nobody there at the time.

[Del Murder]

I have never blacked out that I can remember.

[Ayen]

Can I change my answer to, "Yes, but I was revived at the Poemon Center."?

T-too late?

I've never been physically knocked out in a fight, I've rarely managed to knock myself out hitting my head or anything either. That being said when I was grossly underweight at 8 stone or so (I'm 5'11" no way I ought to weigh that little ever) I went through a stage where I would faint uncontrollably. I'd step out of the bath tub and faint by the time I reached my bed, I even fainted once going for a pee at home. Once I gained weight to a healthier weight it stopped which means it was entirely to do with nearly starving myself.
