Blackout
Something really surprised me today. I went for my usual Sunday hiking with my parents at Bukit Gasing. We took the path after the over-hanging bridge. As I was walking up the bukit, I didn’t realise I was walking faster and faster. After awhile, I noticed my parents were way behind so I decided to stop and wait halfway. The moment I stopped walking, I could feel that I am gasping for air. My parents caught up and I told them I am feeling dizzy. Then, very quickly my vision was blurred and I only see white images. A few hikers stopped and offered help but before I knew it, I collapsed. Was a slight blackout there but I could still struggle and stood up with my parents help. I heard people telling me to lower my head and take many deep breaths. A few hikers actually came down to check on me.
After resting for 15 mins, I was ok but there’s so much cold sweat and my towel was soaking wet. This has never happened before, I mean I go to gym so often and walking in Bkt Gasing was a weekly routine for me. Perhaps, it’s the sub-conscious stress I am going through? I don’t know..but this really did surprise me.
