In my own experience i think its partly genetic and other part is diet and metal stress,what i am saying is when u get the drowsy when u stand up, you must not try to fight it and retain conscious thought. If you dont fight that feeling it seems to be easier and does not effect cognition much.The other thing i do is when i stand up i pump my calf muscles and thighs restricting blood to my legs and push it up artificially. If its bad i jump up and down. It sort of pushes the heart rate up.

Also, I feel dull and light head at times, sometimes i get socio phobic to, i was wondering if this is related to it, do u face such conditions?

no, i have never taken any medication for it..! I think It started when i was in 8th grade as soon as i got Jaundice.. Since then it comes on and off. I may have it for couple of years or months and it does not come for another year. Not sure if it is stress, smokeing or some life style change!

I didnt know u could get it after childhood. how old r u?

I get confused at times, not sure if it is the lack of blood to the brain or just anxiety..
