i have vasovagal syndrome, mildly. when i was living in cape cod, there was this guy with a fucking lawn boat who was there approximately 10/365 days of the year.
he compensated for this, as my friend and landlord put it, by "talking your ear off."
so i'm standing there with a vodka cranberry, and he's going on about his daughter, his lawnboat, his tumor in his arm... it was right here, they took a whole chunk out of it
i start to feel like i'm melting with weight.
"fuck, fuck, shit, stop it, you fucker," i think. but it's happening. i am having a vasovagal response.
meanwhile, bob is still rambling on. i realize i'm in the shit. i fucking will pass out, it's going there.
in retrospect, the sensible thing would have been to say, "i'm having a vasovagal response," throw my drink aside, and lie down on the grass until things calmed down. but, given the state i was in, i was not thinking clearly.
"uhhh, i'm sorry, i have to go," i say.
i stumble across the lawn like an irish drunk. i'm not actually drunk. i'd had half my drink.
once i get inside, i am fucking serious. drink goes down on the first fucking surface i see, and i am charging to my bed.
i barely make it. i can't even hear anything anymore, just a massively loud ringing like tinnitus on steroids. i can barely even see; my vision is blacked out.
i land on my bed, and, gradually, it passes.
then, i just yell: FUCK! aloud.
then i go back outside and awkwardly explain to bob what just fucking happened

should say -- that was the most intense one. all the others have been fairly mild. it's far from a daily concern in my life, aside from looking the other way when i get blood tests.

also, to clarify -- he had a recent bandage, and was actively, vividly describing the chunk of flesh that had just been carved out of him. i'm a strong visualizer, and it got to me. movies, videos, don't really do it -- something to do with an actual person there

it is like trypophobia, really, which i also feel, but not as much.
the whole time it was happening, was, psychologically, not bothered at all. i was not grossed out. it was nothing to do with what my conscious mind was doing; it was some archaic eldrich alarm from the deep broadsiding me. only because it had happened to me two or three times before, and had access to infoz, did i actually understand what was happening.
i understood what was happening, and i was, in the part of me that was not in a panic, fucking pissed off: this is so stupid! what the fuck! stupid brain
but, really, that was the worst one ever, and i can count the overall number of incidents on one hand.
but, to be safe, i turn away, or tune out, when i feel like we're verging into trigger territory.

i stared at trypophobia photos for a while. it did provoke a response -- i very clearly began to feel nauseous. much slower and less intense than the vasovagal experience

I have a vasovagal response if I read more than 3 of your posts in a row.

the irony of epicmegatrax complaining about people who "talk your ear off". the asbergers & self-unawareness is palpable.
