Fainting is an experience where one passes out or looses consciousness due to various reasons that remains unexplained.

We would like to explore the experiences of members of this great forum as regards to this subject.

Have you fainted before?

What led to it ?

What was your experience?

Is fainting a medical case?

What is the usual first aid given to a person who fainted?

If the victim is left unattended to, can it lead to death?

Why do some people have multiple fainting experiences while others don't experience it?

Kindly share your knowledge or experience.

Joking about this will likely defeat the purpose of this thread.


@dominique, are you a medical personnel?

It's a funny question op.. it's like asking a dead person what it feels like to be dead..

Being unconscious is simply lacking awareness of happenings around you.. a blank memory devoid of content.. so how can one explain that.. it will be the people around the individual at the time of the occurrence that can explain what happened..

An individual who fainted can only explain what happened before and after he fainted

Talking about first aid.. the only time I've been around a person who fainted.. it was water they poured on him till he regained consciousness and he didn't even know what happened in the past minutes
NaijaMutant:


Does this mean that a person who faints doesn't require any or much medical assistance?


I'm not a medical practitioner but I'm sure it requires.. that's why there's first aid

I've fainted twice before.
The first time my parents were there while I was alone during the second experience.
Both happened during the night after taking just a few step after urinating.

My experience? Nothing. Just woke up with bruises. The first incident came with bruises on my arm and I had a cut on my lip which was swollen like I was punched.

Causes: I sold off almost 20 bags of my blood in the space of a year and i was still in the game then.

This is a confession.

What does sold off almost 20 bags of blood mean?

i fainted once. i fell from the top of a storeyed building. people around said i passed out for 20minutes but, to me, i thought it was just maybe few seconds and i even couldn't recall how i fell down or how the ladder broke. i only realise i was in a hospital. it was the grace of God i'm still alive
