Wait til you're 50

Today, I've reached the age where I get really dizzy and my vision blurs if I stand up too fast. I'm 19 years-old. FML

I urge you to consult a cardiologist and a neurologist Pronto. That is not a good sign if this happens every time.

That is not an age related thing, I would see a doctor asap

This sounds like orthostatic hypotension. Like other comments said definitely consult a doctor about this

Then, don't stand up fast. Just saved you a trip to the doctor. You're welcome.

There are many possible causes of that - from low blood pressure to who knows what else. Not all of them are serious, but falling and hurting yourself or others could be. Make an appointment, see a doctor, and in the meantime get up more slowly.

Uh, that's not a thing that happens to 19 year olds. I'm way older than that and don't get dizzy standing up or getting blurred vision. You need to see a dcotor.

it started happening to me when i was 12…

nah that's just you standing to fast and having low blood/oxygen in your brain. your blood gets pushed down with gravity when you stand up too fast. just like how a water filled balloon behaves when you throw it up.
