Question

What happens if I faint when I get dizzy?

Community Answer

You will basically just fall down and blackout. It could last for a few minutes or much longer, like an hour or two. This could be very dangerous, so don’t try to do it.

Question

Is it possible to die from holding your breath?

Community Answer

It's possible, but it's unlikely that it would happen. In most cases you'd probably lose consciousness at some point and you'd start breathing again involuntarily.

Question

What can I do if I am dizzy because I don't get enough sleep and haven't been able to get more sleep?

Community Answer

The only way to solve this problem is to get more sleep, so you need to figure out the root cause of your sleeplessness and fix it. If you don't have enough time to sleep, you will need to reorganize your day/life so that sleep becomes a priority. Otherwise, as you can see, your health is at risk. If you cannot sleep because of insomnia, check out How to Treat Insomnia , and if nothing there is helpful, consult your doctor.

Question

Is it normal that I vomited doing this?

Community Answer

Not necessarily, no. If you are going to spin, make sure you wait a while after eating, preferably an hour or two. Next, spin with your head down and only for seven to eight spins. Anymore than that and you risk getting sick.
