Pass out

Passed out in the cemetery the other day, due to the menses. Felt uncomfortable all morning, and after the funeral I just felt the weak feeling that is so familiar from years ago. Started seeing white spots, and cold sweat coming out on the hot hot day, I knew better that I should call out for help. My sister helped me and others keep thinking I'm having a bad cramp, while the others who don't know it's period thought it's the sun killing me WTH. After a short walk I just couldn't walk anymore so I 'fell' kneeling on the floor. Mum helped me up to the bus and I curled and wiggled on the frontest seat with my uncle holding grandpa's framed picture. Couldn't even gather the energy to ask him to give me more space to curl up to fall asleep.

It's not the first time, but it's been a couple of years since the last. Used to feel the nausea and weakness every month when I first started my period, but it never came back after it stopped, until 2 years ago. But that was once.

They say it's due to the hot sun, some say because I hadn't have enough sleep. Most probably got nothing to do with the hot sun though, cuz I've been feeling unwell all morning before that.

I took a short nap on the way back home and felt all fine. All I need is a place to curl up and go to sleep.

Checked with Dr Google, and it turned out most probably to be anemia. Somehow, it's common among young women during menses. Sometimes it's iron defeciency, or many other possible reasons. So I guess I don't have much to worry about. =)
