It seems that If I am sitting down for a while, or laying, and then I get up quickly and begin to move around, I just black out. Is this normal.

It is abnormal, but a small percentage of people do have it for life, particularly the ones taking high blood pressure pills.
You can easily overcome it. Before getting up after sitting or laying, do some simple exercises, such as raising your legs, your arms, your shoulders etc a couple of times. It is a kind of warming up that increases your heart rate and improve your blood circulation.

Not normal. Is your cardiovascular system healthy? Do you need to lose weight? Eat right and exercise a lot more and you should stop blacking out so easily.

No this is not normal and this could be caused by one of two things, high blood pressure or more likely because you are lacking in iron and thus anemic, go see a Dr for a blood test ASAP both are easily treatable.
Hope you feel better soon.

It's called orthostatic hypotension. It can be normal in growing teens and in the elderly.
You can relieve it by increasing your circulation. Exercise regularly and drink lots of water. That should help!

No, it is not normal at all. You want to make an appt. with a doctor soon, could be a blood pressure problem.

You probably have low blood pressure and when you get up fast...it falls and makes you black out. I use to have the same problem. Do see your doctor to make sure.

You are probably just getting up too fast and the blood rushes to your head.
