today i had some "dramatic event" and i cried for a relatively long period and i suffered chest pain and dizziness which is pretty normal
and i fell asleep while crying
THEN my sister woke me up
but i didn't recognize her
i kept shouting at her face saying
"go away: and "who are you" and "i think i know u" and "just don't get any closer"
she was laughing cause she thought i was joking but i didn't know where i was or who she is i tried hard to remember and stared at her face then i started to feel maybe she is my sister but she looks different
i kept staring as she laughed and then i almost fainted not just slept
i don't remember any thing next other than waking up like an hour later still confused
i know everyone but i'm really confused
i feel defensive towards them
4 hours later now i feel fine but with severe headache
is it just a reaction cause i cried so hard or should i see a doctor about it ?
Update:well u kindda scared me by the answers
anyway
i'm 20 years old
the "dramatic event"
well it'll sound silly but it's not to me
i'm a med-school student first year
i failed almost all subjects because my dad is going through the painful process of cancer and he is divorced from mum so i had to take care of him
mean while my boyfriend has been acting like a jerk ,he is never there always with friends
i found out about my results yesterday and today we really fought :S (me and my boy friend)
like a big fight ,just that i really love him and it's a huge deal to me when he is not there and he is fighting with me while i'm going through all this instead of just being a support

the answer to this is more complicated than you would expect
the nature and detail of the even is very significant to how you are reacting.
stress and trauma can do many things to you.
i witnessed someone die in front of me on a scuba diving trip and till this day i feel so much guilt. that is a result of my trauma. There was realistically nothing that could be done...
i dotn know how old you are but contact someone who specializes in mental health. your school also has counselors that can help you. a lot of community colleges and universities offer free mental health services

im 21 and i broke up with my bf of 7 years because we fought on the daily. at this point of my life i dont have the patience for a relationship and its probably best if you focus your time on school rather than fighting
it sounds like you are dealing with a lot of stress and the situation can be traumatic to you and not others doesnt make it invalid.
Depending on how old you are, and what form of dramatic event or trauma you have experienced really.
I would advise you to take a tablet for the headache, and go see a doctor, dizziness and chest pain isn't normal, and nor is the confusion. It could be the stress that's made you that way. Just explain to your doctor how you feel or felt, they'll sort it out for you! Probably the worst thing to say to you right now, but. Don't worry!
You should probably see a doctor. Also, chest pain and dizziness isn't normal, so you should get that checked out too.
