Your Mom was right in telling you to eat something. A lot of the weak spells people have are due to lower blood sugar levels. This does not mean you should eat candy. You should eat complex carbohydrates as they fuel the body for a longer period. If this persists for more than a couple of days, see your doctor. It could be a sign of diabetes or something worse. Also, make sure you are eating well balanced meals every day (this includes plenty of non-alcoholic liquids). Even a one day break from proper nutrition can throw in the proverbial monkey wrench.

Just about everybody has had a "weak spell." It is called Hypoglycemia. When you eat sugar your body gives out insulin to break that sugar down. After it is broken down, if you still have an excess of insulin, it will cause hypoglycemia (hypo= too little, gyclemia=Sugar). You body tells you what is wrong...you get weak, shakey, sweaty and really nauseated. You need something for that insulin to work on...sugar...and this time add a little protein to it....like cheese or eggs. Maybe you are eating too much sugar and too little proteins? The goal is to keep balanced. Some people have a real problem with this. Just be sure you do not load up on sugars.

for most it's when your blood sugar is just a little too low, and you mom was right, you probably just needed to get a bite to eat.. sometimes I'll get weak spells because my iron is too low.. when that happens i just have to supplement my iron for a few weeks and build my stocks back up.. but only a doctor should diagnose you with iron deficiency

And you say I'm "Insane"? I think you need to take a look in the mirror, not a the computer, where your ""WEAK SPELLS"" are!!
