I have blackouts, where I faint and have loss of memory. Today, in school, I had a blackout in the middle of choir class- and I'm on the top riser. I don't remember (as usual) falling or even going into the auditorium, like the nurse says, I only remember waking up in O.S.S, where I evidently ran to. The last class I remember being in was math, then waking up in the auditorium---my nurse thinks that I'm lying about not remembering choir class, she thinks I'm embarrassed that I fell on people and I ran becausse of embarrassment.
Now people are asking me every 2 seconds if I'm alright,
I don't know who I fell on,
If this happened to you would you be mortified or does this sh!t just happen and you'd blow it off?
What do I do when I go back to school tommorow?

Go to the doctor--a friend of mine had that, and it ended up being a brain tumor.
A normal student shouldn't have to deal with that. Force your mom to take you to the doctor to be examined.
I wouldn't be mortified, but I would be worried. I would not hesitate going to the doctor. This isn't something you just "blow off."

That's a serious problem you're describing there! And shame on the nurse for thinking you made it all up! Is she you? Does she know what you're thinking? I don't think so!
If this has happened before, you should go to see a doctor right away! It could indicate a serious medical condition.
If it happened to me, yes, I would be embarrassed. But I would also realize it wasn't my fault. If people give you problems or make a big deal of it when you go to school tomorrow, point out that you don't know why it happened, but that it did and it's not your fault. If they press the issue, ignore them. And, if possible, find out who you fell on, if you fell on anyone, and apologize after explaining what happened.

I passed out at school once, and hit my head in the process of going down to the floor.........don't remember a thing, but we are in a totally different situation then me but anyway don't be embarrassed you couldn't help it, but I would suggest going to the doctor because that doesn't just happen something could be wrong. Just laugh at yourself.......then people won't care.....and neither should you.......sh!t happens its part of life just brush it off and start walking. good luck:)

It's not embarrasing.
Act like you usually do at school. If it is something you can't control and happens normally then there's not much you can do about that.
I would blow it off because first of all, it's a condition you have and if someone wants to talk about you because of it then they're just uneducated and also because it's nothing to be really bothered about. We all have our little problems.

Just go to school and tell everyone that laughs at you how cruel they are for laughing at someone who is dieing from a brain tumor. Tell them that you didn't tell anyone before because you didn't want any one to worry. Then run away crying. That should make them feel real bad about themselves (as they should). I'll bet they stop laughing.

this sounds like either a medical issue or a psychological issue. in either case, get help. getting embarrassed about something you cannot help makes no sense and has no logic.
