Go see a doctor!!! There are many reasons why a person may feel like fainting but the only way to find out is to get some tests done to find the possible cause.

I started doing this in 99, after the 8th Dr and 2 years later, I was told I have Pernicious Anemia which is a Vit B-12 deficency
A simple blood test can tell but odds are you need to ask
I blacked out in front of 2 Drs, one that kept treating for the flu.
He asked if I wanted a re-exam I told him this was the 3rd time in 3 months with the same complaint and he did have a clue.
Some of the other symptoms I had
Reduced hearing
Swollen tongue
Difficulty speaking
No energy
Severe charley horses (spasms)
Fingers and most of the way up the arm tingles and from my toes to my chest
ED
Black toe nails
It took about two years after I started treatment before I dared to drive over 10 miles round trip

There are a number of reasons. It might be a chemical imbalance in your brain - sometimes vitamin deficiencies can cause you to faint too. Too much alcohol (duh) or other drugs can affect you the same way - even when you aren't drunk or messed up.
I have a seizure condition (non-epileptic), and if i don't take my medication I will have these 'deja-vu like' experiences - usually where someone is talking and it feels like I have heard the exact words they are using before. Usually they just pass, but I have had them cause me to black out.
If they continue happening you might want to check with a neurologist - they can help you determine what the problem is, and what (if anything) can be done about it.

Usually it's low blood sugar or low blood pressure. If your blood pressure is low, and you get up suddenly, you'll hit the deck.
If you drink a glass of juice and the feeling completely goes away, it's probably low blood sugar.
You need to see a doctor...it's as simple as a blood test to figure it out, under most circunstances.

could be a migraine, a seizure, low blood sugar, anorexia, or a million other things. Go see a doctor
