i am having a eeg at 10;30 am
Hi Katie, I'm sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I'm sure there is a time difference between us!
What kind of medication are you on? These moments of "passing out" that you describe sound a lot like brain shocks or short seizures. I don't doubt that you are scared. But until you go to a doctor you're not going to know what's really causing the problem. My assumption is it's either the anxiety itself that causing such exhaustion on your nervous system, or these are side effects from medication.
Either way, your doc needs to know about this so please go see him/her as soon as you can.
Until then, breathe deeply and don't worry yourself sick with negative thoughts.

Hi Katie,
So sorry to hear you're having such a hard time!
If you ever need an ear don't hesitate to send me a message. I can relate to this kind of anxiety. It's terrifying. But try to remember as much as you may not feel it at the time, you ARE safe. You're in control. These are just thoughts you are afraid of. They are not real.
