What Causes Dizziness, Blackouts And Fainting?

I have an issue of getting faintly dizzy to completely blacking out and shaking. I am 15 years old and very scared. My mom witnessed this and it's seriously disturbing her. From what I have researched this is normal to people who are dehydrated. but the suddenly dropping to the ground and shaking 85% unaware of what's going on. Help!

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to your complain stated here and your age in my opinion it would be better to rule out the cardiac problem and for that you need to get done the some tests like, EKG, ECHO this for to found the cardiac cause of symptoms if this turned unremarkable then the CT head would be advisable, hope this helps you, have a nice day.
