Does anyone get scared they are going to faint?

Sometimes I will get up or get ready to take a shower and I get scared that I will faint. It's not that I feel bad its just the fear of omg what if I faint.

Does anyone ever feel like this? What do you do to get over it?

Does it happen on days that you feel particularly stressed? Maybe controlled breathing to calm yourself?

Yeah I feel like that sometimes when I am in a public area and feeling stressed due to social anxiety. Like oh what if I faint, fear of making a scene, drawing a bunch of attention.

All the best.

It's odd, now that I switched from paxil to Prozac I've noticed I'm more sensitive to caffeine and nicotine
