01:30I asked a psychologist if I had any problems, if I was thinking about anything.
01:46He made me do a test.
01:49He told me that I have hyperventilation syndrome.
01:54The carbon dioxide, the gas that we are exhaling out, goes out much faster.
02:02When you hyperventilate, you're expiring more carbon dioxide, which is still harmful on its own.
02:10So when the carbon dioxide goes low, your blood vessels in all parts of your body, specifically in the brain, get constrained.
02:24The carbon dioxide in your blood circulates through your blood vessels.
02:32When you hyperventilate, your blood vessels in all parts of your body get constrained.
02:40When you hyperventilate, your blood vessels in all parts of your body get constrained.
02:48When you hyperventilate, your blood vessels in all parts of your body get constrained.
03:12What you used to do, you can't do it again.
03:16Actually, the laughter, the happiness,
03:19I feel like I'm going to cry again.
03:21I'm going to collapse.
03:42A consultation with a neurologist or a psychiatrist would be the best option.
04:04where they could explore and look for other causes that could explain the condition.
