Yes this actually happened yesterday (well 28th June, 2011 as it's now officially the 30th). I think it was because of the Niacin burn (as I call it) I was doing. But I don't know why of all the other times I've taken the fast release niacin pill to cleanse me that this happened. The only explanation I can think of was I didn't eat enough so it burned out all the sugar from my cells throwing me into a major sugar low attack. I've been near a couple of them before when my sugar dropped too much (got to love being hypoglycemic...NOT) so I know the lightheaded and dizzy feeling and nearly passing out. But I have never ever felt like this. I know sugar lows can chance a heart attack, coma, and even death (and I never wanted to experience something like that but I believe I did). I was literally unconscious on the floor for at least a good fifteen to twenty minutes from what I recall of the time as this set in and when I became conscious again.
~Second Chance~
Suddenly lightheaded feeling
and dizziness.
My heart pounds in my chest
as I go to sit down on the bench seat by the kitchen table.
My hearing starts to dim as does my vision.
I can't hear anymore and my eyesight is almost black.
The lightheaded feeling engulfs me
as unconsciousness takes me into darkness
as I start to fall towards the floor.
Feeling of floating,
disconnection from my body,
and a bright white light.
I go towards it confused
before I hear a woman's soft whisper
all around me.
“It's not yet your time my child.”
The feeling of disconnection starts to fade
as does the light.
Heaviness sets in again
and I slowly open my eyes.
Disoriented I sit up slowly from the floor
looking around wondering at first where I am.
Look at the cat before me wondering who's it was.
Yoko finally comes to my mind
as I blink again and look around again.
'What happened?'
is all I can think in my disoriented state.
'Could it have been a dream?'
No.
I heard her voice loud and clear.
Nyx.
I'm sure of it.
She sent me back to live.
She gave me a second chance.
I get up still disoriented but hungry.
Food. I need it.
I grab something to eat though still disoriented.
Once done though, I feel sleepy.
I lay on the couch and fall asleep,
her voice still echoing in my thoughts.
When I wake again a couple hours later,
I feel better.
Not so disoriented.
Alive.
I go to the balcony and look at the sky still blue and bright.
“Thank you,”
I whisper realizing it hadn't been a dream earlier.
“Thank you for allowing me to have a second chance and live.”
And eternally grateful I will be.
