Gah. I fainted on the train this morning. That was embarrassing. I could feel it coming on - and kinda knew it was going to happen but the train wasn't moving and there was no space. then the dark started coming in from the sides and I was suddenly wondering why I had my face on an armrest as it wasn't very comfortable. Noises filtered back in and I could hear the other passengers panicing about what to do with me. I let them know I was alive and eventually got up and sat in someone's seat. mad. not done that in years. used to faint a lot when I was a teenager - especially when we had heavy robes in the church choir - it was such a horribly familiar sensation when it started.

Had a hot chocolate and a sit down in Leeds station till I felt a little more human.

Amusingly everyone in the office is suitably freaked out and treating me like I might actually drop dead at some point.

Current Mood: calm
Current Music: dear prudence - siouxsie and the banshees

Do u have teh habit of fainting? I have only once had that happen to me and it was badness incarnate...Felt like being dragged into a pool of nothingness and I have no memory of what happened prior to it or after until I came round and I was being a loon trying to get away from the ambulance men....

I used to do it a fair amount as a teenager but not recently at all - i was only out for a few seconds thankfully.

I used to pass out as a teenager too - about once a month (since pill jabs and no-periods it stopped)... As you've recently changed your contraception, might be worth checking with the docs (especially if it happens again)...?
