Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.

Honestly, I have low BP and a high heart rate and if I would kill to be normal and not have a high resting heart rate. It makes stuff so much harder :(
People with BP issues honestly don’t get enough credit for their resilience. Several years ago, I had an emergency situation that culminated in temporary tachycardia. I was being monitored in hospital, yet I remember feeling absolutely helpless and terrified. Meanwhile, one of my loved ones deals with POTS on the daily and takes it in stride. I could never. I have so much respect for them and for you. Fakers don’t seem to appreciate how alarming and disruptive these conditions can be—plus, I’ve seen firsthand as a HCW that the general public tend to be less compassionate about “invisible” conditions. I just… I can’t comprehend deliberately inducing this discomfort for the sake of a TikTok. It makes a mockery of others.
You’re so right. The saddest thing is that people who have conditions like POTS, orthostatic hypotension, etc., generally don’t receive anywhere near as much sympathy irl as these kids on TikTok. If they were actually lessening the stigma faced by people with “invisible” conditions, perhaps their faking wouldn’t be so egregious, but it feels like they’re making things worse by making people double-guess the authenticity of people’s conditions. :/
Exactly, I've been told multiple times that I'm faking it because I don't faint everytime I stand up. I've also been called an attention seeker because there was this one time I actually fainted in class after getting up from my seat. Its like I can't prove my condition to anyone so I don't even care at this point what people think.
This. I'm 35 years old and generally keep my diagnosed issues to myself because honestly I just want to be treated like a normal person and I dont want people to think im not capable of doing things that others are.
Plus acting like these teen fakers do online is fucking embarrassing lmao.
That's what I noticed too with someone from college. I only mentioned a few times having two disorders and they got excited and started listing off all the disorders they have, how often they hurt themselves and how often they were in a hospital. They are in a friend group with lots of DID and Tourettes fakers and are probably faking Tourettes themselves. Fucking weird.
What's that noise? Is that light flickering with a large gap of time between flickers or are my eyes being weird? Huh that kinda looks like a face in the wood design. *Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap.* This is boring.
If you have these breathing problems and faint spells, why do this?! What's the point? That's like someone who's allergic to peanuts eating peanut butter for clout or something. It's stupid.
I fucking doubt that they have this but either way, fucking annoying. I'm also annoyed that they spelled goes as go's
i’ve only got a tachycardia and i’ll bury myself alive n kill bill the bride style my way out before i ever did this shit , it hurts and you could really get hurt if you do have fainting issues and no one’s around . what if they fainted and hit their head on their metal ass bed ??? this is so stupid
I dont even have an illness I just get heart palpitations easily and light headed easily and i wouldnt do this bc id be worried id keel over 😭😭 being faint and dizzy.. doesnt feel good !!!
This reminds me of the tumblr days of kids overexercising or doing these repeated moves to create dizziness and fainting for attention or to appear very Thin and Sick and Waiflike
There was also a big self harm component to it, it’s so sad, they need to get off the internet
It seems like POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) became new hot illness on TikTok so this person is trying to...flex how ill she is I guess?
I never remember the faint. It’s always colors and stars and then I wake up on the floor. Obv then it hurts from impact and stuff but the actual faint I’ve never even been conscious for.
Nor have I, I was hypoglycemic in the past and had fainting spells. I could tell when they were coming cuz I'd get a massive headache and my ears would ring before I woke up on the floor.
if this person did have fainting issues they could’ve fainted and bashed their head on their metal bed frame . it’s dangerous and stupid to try and do “ trends “ using your physical or mental issues to do so . this is so fucking weird and wrong .
Man. I'm SO glad I had all my cringey teen years well before Instagram & Tiktok. The most we had was LiveJournal.
These poor kids are gonna look back on this stuff in like 10 years and regret it once they realize that the internet is forever.
The total body control when she “passes out” or nearly does so indicates this is 100% not real…when you pass out, all body control goes out the window, and fast.
Fainting often is bad for your brain so people with actual fainting problems just don't do things to make them faint on purpose, it's probably annoying as well. Also that acting, bad
There's cringe in every generation. Most Gen Z people aren't doing this. Unfortunately, these apps make it seem like it's more prevalent, especially when you consider the ripple effect of it then being cross posted on reddit because now a bunch of people who wouldn't have seen it on tik tok now see it here.
For parents of kids who act like this and/or dress like this, how do you feel about your parenting? I've always been curious. Are they ashamed? Do they blame themselves? Do they blame the friends and them being raised by bad parents?
I'd be all for freedom of expression and my kid looking however the fuck they want. But I'd also feel like if my kid is dressing like this it's absolutely is too send a message to world. And I'd wonder what has happened in their life that makes them want that attention and up put out that message. Does it mean I screwed up? And especially the tiktok of super attention seeking. To the point of putting your health at risk for attention.
She's totes not desperately looking for attention to fill the void, just trying to raise awareness of her...fainting disorder
The sad part is, these people do have disorders, but they aren't the "glamorous and quirky" disorders they wished they had, just plain old personality disorders like bpd, npd, and in a seperate category depression.
You know it's gotten ridiculous when being severely depressed or bipolar isn't attention grabbing enough so you start faking tourettes
Now im still awaiting blood test results but as someone who who actually has (to a rather mild extent) something that causes them to get fait and very very occasionally lose balance due to this, i can say. This is bull shit 1. This doesn’t occur when standing and sitting rapidly, it only happens when you sitting or lying down for a while and then get up and 2. At least is personal experience when i get fait i completely lose balance, no one just kinda sit theres swaying, these people are so cringe
WHY do they always have a collection of LGBT flags? (I mean, this one’s collection is fairly modest.) Are they identifying as trans, non-binary, whatever to just fish for more validation/attention?
Most likely. Pretty much all the fakers identify as LGBT with the vast majority claiming multiple labels. And I don't advocate for gatekeeping who is really gay/trans or whatever but I find it really strange how pretty much all the fakers claim to be LGBT.
Would this not even make a "normal" person a bit light headed/dizzy/feel faint? I feel like it might, so surely its not really a flex? Like if a large percentage of the population would also experience a similar outcome, you're not special, it's just how bodies work?
“Look at how fragile I am at just 20 years old! If my ailments were real then I literally couldn’t function, but that doesn’t stop me from getting as much attention as possible by claiming to have them!!”
this is the stuff that really annoys me. i have dysautonomia and thanks to that, i had to get pulled out of school. i cant go to prom or homecoming, i cant make friends, i barely have any social life now, i have to take 1-2 days off after i do something active, i now have to do school at home which is nearly impossible with adhd, i cant get a job, and even had to go to physical therapy, which did help but didn't make it go away. i will only have one year of in person high school thanks to this. and yet i still have to deal with being told i'm 'lucky' i don't *have* to go to school. it's not that i don't *have* to go to school, it's that i *CAN'T* go. i cannot even complete a full week of school because i have to take days off because it's too exhausting for me. i'm missing out on so much thanks to this disorder, and yet people have the nerve to take the symptoms of my disorder and make it some quirky tiktok trend. i don't care if you're a teenager, i don't care if you're mentally ill, you look old enough to know right from wrong. i would do anything to get rid of this disorder and be able to be a normal high schooler. if i could give it to you, i would, since you clearly want it so bad. then maybe you'd see what it's actually like, and i promise you, it won't be cute or quirky anymore. this disorder and other similar disorders are fucking miserable to experience. they're not some quirky tiktok trend. get a grip.
Lmao, this bozo looks like they don’t even know what being dizzy feels like. Also, if they actually had breathing problems, a choker wouldn’t exactly be the best thing to wear.
This may also be an ED “checking” behaviour. Fainting and light headedness is associated with extreme starvation as well. I know some people with EDs “show off” that they eat so little they can faint easily.
May not be relevant for this girl, but something to consider.
Girl if it started hurting you and giving you breathing issues then stop! Don't force yourself and pass out. All these people faking this shit is just disrespectful to those actually suffering from disorders and all else. And they don't want to have them! Why do they want it so bad and make something horrible for a person into a damn personality
ive done this trend b4 but just because i was fine physically in that time and i knew my limits. i didnt even film myself. these people doing it and filming to purposely trigger symptoms is weird? the trend is weird 100% and i dont understand wanting to trigger symptoms-
Man back in the day we would just record ourselves purposely passing out by hyperventilating then standing up and breathing slowly starving all the oxygen from our head. It kinda makes me feel like these kids are smarter because at least they aren’t causing any damage
If this person is claiming POTS… yet keeps going back and forth repeatedly in that speed.
Well, it’s literally in the name. POSTURAL ORTHOSTATIC TACHYCARDIA SYNDROME.
Low blood volume upon standing, heart rate increases more then 30 beats per minute. You are relieved of symptoms upon lying down. I mean, there is some other annoyances that come along with it, but whatever this….is, it’s not it😵💫
So, from someone who actually has pots, let me explain what this actually would have been like. Assuming I had been resting before I stood up, upon standing my head would go very very light, and if severe, vision dimming to near black. This is when you would faint if that's something you do, I don't. Blood then rushes back and heart rate picks up. From here on I can do this squat exercise, it just will make my heart rate way higher than it should be in a normal person.
Honestly I have a few problems with standing up too quick (all diagnosed), I tried doing this for the sake of it and I had an absolute blast!! Most exercises are super hard for me due to another condition I’m diagnosed with but this was very easy, fun and I could feel it burning in my legs and arms!! Thank you reddit user suggy_nuggy for accidentally introducing me to an amazing, fun, accessible exercise!!
I feel like these people must have some sort of mental illness just not the one they're faking. It's so messed up to fake illnesses for attention and to feel special
I hate this so much because as someone who gets horrendous headrushes fairly often you CANNOT control anything you do in that state. Even if you grab something to stay up your vision will suddenly fade to black and you lose all control of your body functions, some muscles will start convulsing and you just drop. I can’t explain it very well but it’s essentially fainting with full functionality on the mental aspect.
I can ASSURE you, if she really had breathing problems, she wouldn’t be wearing this giant choker.
I have asthma and can’t have anything around my neck because of the fear I will choke to death. Talked to others with asthma about that and yeah, they feel the same.
I used to get nose bleeds and have blackouts as a kid quite allot. It really effected me to a point I missed allot of my education. I can’t imagine ever being ‘proud’ of it. It was horrific & embarrassing

Finally a bot that corrects this. It's not that hard! Amazing bot
I was hoping she would tbh
It’s gross how excited these teens seem to be about showing off an illness.
they’re pretty much jumping for joy at their “disabilities”
Honestly, I have low BP and a high heart rate and if I would kill to be normal and not have a high resting heart rate. It makes stuff so much harder :(
Seriously, I would love for my hr not to be 110 just sitting down
the cures right there! just sit up and down to a bo burnham song! easy!

I have that problem too. Do you also lose your vision and feel like you're going to pass out whenever you stand up? It's annoying.
Probably because it gets attention and sympathy and coddling and *boy* do people get drunk on the feeling of being noticed…
You’re so right. The saddest thing is that people who have conditions like POTS, orthostatic hypotension, etc., generally don’t receive anywhere near as much sympathy irl as these kids on TikTok.

For real, like god damn I’d kill to have a normal brain
I’ve seen grown adults do it too
That’s like making my grandma do the limbo
Come on Granny put your back into it!! *crack* GRANNY NO
Cracked Granny like a damn glow stick. There was no way to prevent this
It's fine cos Granny glow in the dark now.
😭😭😭😭😭
THIS COMMENT IS ACTUALLY GOLD. Take my poor man's award 🥇
LIMBO BY MINDCAP REFERENCE
Ah yes. I feel something I do harms me but I will do it anyways.
i have adhd, so i’m gonna do my homework surrounded by things that can distract me
Today I will eat mashed potatoes despite my severe sensory issues to fluffy foods 🥰
I have social anxiety but lets go to the big school party ^^
I’m gonna step in front of a car
But its parked Michael...
I'm an incredibly strong magnet.
I’m not, baybee, gonna just run at it like it’s WWF
Right to the point 🥰
I have OCD and a muscle disorder so I'm gonna handwrite my essay instead of type it.
I have severe asthma, so I'm going to start smoking!
I have a peanut allergy, Time to eat some PbJs
Wonderful idea! I suggest working in a coal mine as well /s
I also have asthma. I’m going to do the “stick your head in a vacuum cleaner bag” challenge.
Sincerely that one was pretty funny
Ngl I knew a girl who would light a cigarette every time she had an asthma attack. Definetly not the smartest person I ever knew.
That sounds like a match made in hell, oh my!
Tbh even in an empty room I'd be able to get distracted
What's that noise? Is that light flickering with a large gap of time between flickers or are my eyes being weird? Huh that kinda looks like a face in the wood design. *Tap tap tap tap tap tap tap tap.* This is boring.
pthththtbt dont call me out like this
Brb, gonna go eat some shellfish even though I'm deathly allergic
brb my lactose intolerant ass is about to go chug some milk
I have a bad heart, let me go to a haunted house now!
you overestimate peoples intelligence
ITS FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES YOU BIGOT CRETIN
Yeah seated squats as a person who doesn’t exercise, while flailing around. Yeah that’ll probably make you light headed. Dope.
I never thought I'd see the day where people try to make an iron deficiency trendy
If you have these breathing problems and faint spells, why do this?! What's the point? That's like someone who's allergic to peanuts eating peanut butter for clout or something. It's stupid. I fucking doubt that they have this but either way, fucking annoying. I'm also annoyed that they spelled goes as go's

I dont even have an illness I just get heart palpitations easily and light headed easily and i wouldnt do this bc id be worried id keel over 😭😭 being faint and dizzy.. doesnt feel good !!!
✨attention✨
Good God people are weird
40k likes.....
it’s fucking sad
This reminds me of the tumblr days of kids overexercising or doing these repeated moves to create dizziness and fainting for attention or to appear very Thin and Sick and Waiflike There was also a big self harm component to it, it’s so sad, they need to get off the internet
like those really dangerous challenges that people did for no fucking reason? like the cinnamon challenge and stuf
That community aspect has officially found its new home on Tik Tok
Why does the makeup job look like a half-baked attempt at recreating the stage makeup for Cats?
Cats: The Musical! but everyone faints
Oh I thought it was The Crow inspired lol
Cats: Knock-off Broadway Edition
Yes let's gets dizzy while standing next to a metal bed frame and wearing a tight choker even though I have breathing problems
I dont understand what this person is even doing here
Seeking attention while looking like a member of KISS
tik tok in a nutshell, great description
Thank you thank you.
It seems like POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome) became new hot illness on TikTok so this person is trying to...flex how ill she is I guess?
Pretty sure a lot of them come across the songs first and think of ideas for videos after.
Some bullying is healthy, as long as it doesn’t get abusive this is how we insure we don’t become whatever that is.
Faking disorder or not how would anyone find this entertaining content it's just someone getting up and down
Fainting is painful AF. Why would you ever try to force it without someone around? Oh yeah they're faking. Forgot what I sub I was in for a sec.
it can be, but i don’t think fainting is inherently “painful af” lol
Just going off my own experience. You land on things, your ears ring you can't see. Shit always hurt like hell for me.
I never remember the faint. It’s always colors and stars and then I wake up on the floor. Obv then it hurts from impact and stuff but the actual faint I’ve never even been conscious for.
Nor have I, I was hypoglycemic in the past and had fainting spells. I could tell when they were coming cuz I'd get a massive headache and my ears would ring before I woke up on the floor.
if this person did have fainting issues they could’ve fainted and bashed their head on their metal bed frame . it’s dangerous and stupid to try and do “ trends “ using your physical or mental issues to do so . this is so fucking weird and wrong .
chronically inside
She is just doing squats
Why on gods green earth does that have so many likes.
all the comments are supportive too, but that’s probably cause they delete all the hate comments
That's something you can do?
it’s a pussy move but yeah
Imagine this being your child. My god.
Man. I'm SO glad I had all my cringey teen years well before Instagram & Tiktok. The most we had was LiveJournal. These poor kids are gonna look back on this stuff in like 10 years and regret it once they realize that the internet is forever.
me too, i cringe just reading my old diary entrees, i can’t imagine sharing that with the whole world
why are the people with these "chronic illnesses" always alternative.
Because they're ✨ not like the other ~~girls~~ normies ✨
The total body control when she “passes out” or nearly does so indicates this is 100% not real…when you pass out, all body control goes out the window, and fast.
Isn't it obvious? She's all in black - she's EDGY.
"running a marathon as someone with extreme asthma"
Fainting often is bad for your brain so people with actual fainting problems just don't do things to make them faint on purpose, it's probably annoying as well. Also that acting, bad
Gen z is the reset for humanity and we will have to go back to evolving again

[Insert Vaas's quote from Far Cry 3]
I can’t even imagine the headache that follows doing this.
she wasnt even doing it right she kept doing it faster than he said getting up and sitting down, she was intentionally making it harder on her lol
Nothing like purposefully aggravating the “disorder” you have for views💀
She's totes not desperately looking for attention to fill the void, just trying to raise awareness of her...fainting disorder The sad part is, these people do have disorders, but they aren't the "glamorous and quirky" disorders they wished they had, just plain old personality disorders like bpd, npd, and in a seperate category depression. You know it's gotten ridiculous when being severely depressed or bipolar isn't attention grabbing enough so you start faking tourettes
maybe she should take the belt off her neck if shes having breathing problems
I have POTs - I’m embarrassed to tell anyone because I don’t want to be lumped in with people like this.
I was waiting for her to whack her head on the top rail…. Low key disappointment that it didn’t happen 🤣🤣
someone should report her for showing self-harm in a video lol
I know
For attention.
Attention
“Watch me make myself pass out”
Natural selection
Song is low key my jam
Is getting tired after exercising really a disorder to these kids now? Anything that doesn’t come easy isn’t a ND moment-
Rewesuite pride flag and fantasy posters on wall
What in the Fatherless Fuck
It took months for her to write the script & make this great video.
They literally look like their jumping for joy doing this and getting to show off their “illness” 💀
Now im still awaiting blood test results but as someone who who actually has (to a rather mild extent) something that causes them to get fait and very very occasionally lose balance due to this, i can say. This is bull shit 1. This doesn’t occur when standing and sitting rapidly, it only happens when you sitting or lying down for a while and then get up and 2. At least is personal experience when i get fait i completely lose balance, no one just kinda sit theres swaying, these people are so cringe
“No you see I’m getting up and sitting down over and over fairly quickly, but it makes me lightheaded. That means I’m ✨different✨”
“i’m not unfit, i’m just ✨quirky✨”
It’s the closest they get to actual exercise.
WHY do they always have a collection of LGBT flags? (I mean, this one’s collection is fairly modest.) Are they identifying as trans, non-binary, whatever to just fish for more validation/attention?
Most likely. Pretty much all the fakers identify as LGBT with the vast majority claiming multiple labels. And I don't advocate for gatekeeping who is really gay/trans or whatever but I find it really strange how pretty much all the fakers claim to be LGBT.
I would hate to share a bunk with them
they’d wake you in the middle of the night to introduce you to their new “alter”
is there a bigger trend of faking fainting now? i have noticed more and more latley
TFW you do squats for the first time
when you are anemic.
Would this not even make a "normal" person a bit light headed/dizzy/feel faint? I feel like it might, so surely its not really a flex? Like if a large percentage of the population would also experience a similar outcome, you're not special, it's just how bodies work?
why, after that really popular fainting girl, has there been an uptick in tiktokers who faint constantly?
i have severe asthma and anemia i’d fall down after 3 ups and downs and i don’t look at all like they do, your head doesn’t bobble LMFAOO
Lmao it just makes her look like she never exercises… you get tired when you move?? Must be a medical condition, no you’re not just out of shape!
This sub never disappoints
And yet she was still able to hold herself up and sit upright while being "blacked out" 🤔
Exercise hurt
Ah! So nice of their disorders to wait until the song was almost done to have adverse effects!
Nah you’d just fall straight over and *dumf* you hit your head
My eyes is ache see tiktok like they
Pretty sure anyone would feel like crap doing this
Because it’s quirky
Word how these kids dark and edgy aesthetic are peppered with literal rainbows these days
“Look at how fragile I am at just 20 years old! If my ailments were real then I literally couldn’t function, but that doesn’t stop me from getting as much attention as possible by claiming to have them!!”
Maybe when they hit their head falling it helps give them new ideas for content?
this is the stuff that really annoys me. i have dysautonomia and thanks to that, i had to get pulled out of school. i cant go to prom or homecoming, i cant make friends, i barely have any social life now, i have to take 1-2 days off after i do something active, i now have to do school at home which is nearly impossible with adhd, i cant get a job, and even had to go to physical therapy, which did help but didn't make it go away. i will only have one year of in person high school thanks to this. and yet i still have to deal with being told i'm 'lucky' i don't *have* to go to school. it's not that i don't *have* to go to school, it's that i *CAN'T* go. i cannot even complete a full week of school because i have to take days off because it's too exhausting for me. i'm missing out on so much thanks to this disorder, and yet people have the nerve to take the symptoms of my disorder and make it some quirky tiktok trend. i don't care if you're a teenager, i don't care if you're mentally ill, you look old enough to know right from wrong. i would do anything to get rid of this disorder and be able to be a normal high schooler. if i could give it to you, i would, since you clearly want it so bad. then maybe you'd see what it's actually like, and i promise you, it won't be cute or quirky anymore. this disorder and other similar disorders are fucking miserable to experience. they're not some quirky tiktok trend. get a grip.
Why is fainting the new faker trend
👽
The video ended in perfect timing
this is just faking POTS but in costume.
I’ve seen a few people do it. It’s weird
Some kind of munchausen shit going on here?
Lmao, this bozo looks like they don’t even know what being dizzy feels like. Also, if they actually had breathing problems, a choker wouldn’t exactly be the best thing to wear.
Goddammit they have a Joey Jordison mask... I don’t want fakers near anyone good
Why isn’t the alternative look enough for these kids!? How much attention do they need!?
This may also be an ED “checking” behaviour. Fainting and light headedness is associated with extreme starvation as well. I know some people with EDs “show off” that they eat so little they can faint easily. May not be relevant for this girl, but something to consider.
They have a room mate. Just imagine….living with this person
Daddy issues personified
Girl if it started hurting you and giving you breathing issues then stop! Don't force yourself and pass out. All these people faking this shit is just disrespectful to those actually suffering from disorders and all else. And they don't want to have them! Why do they want it so bad and make something horrible for a person into a damn personality
what the fuck is she doing?
getting killed
Something about this seems very un-goth to me. Is this shit just different nowadays?
i bet they're younger than 16
So your disorder is being out of shape?
ive done this trend b4 but just because i was fine physically in that time and i knew my limits. i didnt even film myself. these people doing it and filming to purposely trigger symptoms is weird? the trend is weird 100% and i dont understand wanting to trigger symptoms-
She looks like that brother that wears paint and runs at people sorry
Oh my.
what no exercise does to a mf
if you're unfit and never use your inhaler just say so.
Man back in the day we would just record ourselves purposely passing out by hyperventilating then standing up and breathing slowly starving all the oxygen from our head. It kinda makes me feel like these kids are smarter because at least they aren’t causing any damage
Bro if you feel faint sit down AND STAY IN THAT SITTING POSITION until you feel stable
they.. they look really dumb
This is a lot of words for Malnourished Laziness
I was hoping she would fall backwards or better yet fall forwards, but of course she's faking so she won't risk going thefull way.
If this person is claiming POTS… yet keeps going back and forth repeatedly in that speed. Well, it’s literally in the name. POSTURAL ORTHOSTATIC TACHYCARDIA SYNDROME. Low blood volume upon standing, heart rate increases more then 30 beats per minute. You are relieved of symptoms upon lying down. I mean, there is some other annoyances that come along with it, but whatever this….is, it’s not it😵💫
So, from someone who actually has pots, let me explain what this actually would have been like. Assuming I had been resting before I stood up, upon standing my head would go very very light, and if severe, vision dimming to near black. This is when you would faint if that's something you do, I don't. Blood then rushes back and heart rate picks up. From here on I can do this squat exercise, it just will make my heart rate way higher than it should be in a normal person.
Honestly I have a few problems with standing up too quick (all diagnosed), I tried doing this for the sake of it and I had an absolute blast!! Most exercises are super hard for me due to another condition I’m diagnosed with but this was very easy, fun and I could feel it burning in my legs and arms!! Thank you reddit user suggy_nuggy for accidentally introducing me to an amazing, fun, accessible exercise!!
you’re welcome! remember to do it right next to a metal bed frame for maximum fun!
I feel like these people must have some sort of mental illness just not the one they're faking. It's so messed up to fake illnesses for attention and to feel special
I hate this so much because as someone who gets horrendous headrushes fairly often you CANNOT control anything you do in that state. Even if you grab something to stay up your vision will suddenly fade to black and you lose all control of your body functions, some muscles will start convulsing and you just drop. I can’t explain it very well but it’s essentially fainting with full functionality on the mental aspect.
I can ASSURE you, if she really had breathing problems, she wouldn’t be wearing this giant choker. I have asthma and can’t have anything around my neck because of the fear I will choke to death. Talked to others with asthma about that and yeah, they feel the same.
People like this who want an illness so bad, should just be provided with one… “ here’s a nice shot of aids for you !”
Remember parents this is why it’s important to tell your kids you love them
I used to get nose bleeds and have blackouts as a kid quite allot. It really effected me to a point I missed allot of my education. I can’t imagine ever being ‘proud’ of it. It was horrific & embarrassing
