I had that problem when i was your age. The doctor said to make a fist and dig my nails into my hands - it makes it go away really quick. Try not to get up so fast. I'm not sure how it looks, my mom asked once "what's wrong with your eyes?"

when you are sitting and want to get up stand up stay there for a minute or two then be on your way i suffer from the same thing and my dr says it is vertigo- it throws off your equaliberium that is why you get dizzy if you are having frequent lightheadedness go to the dr for an evaluation and possible treatment

Fluctuating blood pressure, perhaps due to being dehydrated...get a check up and see what your doctor thinks, just to keep your worries at bay :)

Could be either low or high blood pressure. See a doctor.

I'm 26 and that still happens to me. If you ever find the answer, I'd love to know.

Are you anemic? Check to see if your iron is low (especially when you are on your period).
