hey everyone... I'm turning 14 this November and honestly, I’m pretty freaked out. Things have been rough lately—my grades are slipping because my parents are going through a divorce and they're constantly fighting, plus my sister is in the hospital right now and we still don't know what's wrong with her. But lately, some weird stuff has been happening to me. Every time I stand up, everything just goes black for about 20 seconds. My head starts spinning and I feel like I'm swaying, so if I don't sit down or lean over, I'll probably just collapse. Once those 20 seconds pass, my head rings and my eyes ache, and there's this intense pressure in my skull. I told my parents, but they just brush it off like it's nothing, even though it's getting worse and lasting longer... I actually passed out in public a month ago because of this, but they didn't really take it seriously. And since my sister went to the hospital, I've been getting this sharp chest pain, like someone is squeezing my heart, and sometimes I can't even catch my breath. Does anyone know what this could be or what I should do? thanks in advance
