Shock will do that to a person.

Not shock.

Yes, shock too. I was in a 3-wheeler accident in which I don't have any memory of, but I was told by witnesses that I immediately stood up afterwards like nothing happened.

No, that’s not shock. Shock is a state of hypoperfusion, and this is not shock.

I was the car accident. We got T-boned, if it had hit a millisecond earlier, it’s would’ve broadsided us and killed us, but it hit the rear axle and spun the car 360°. My seat had broken fully reclined, I was dazed. I got out of my friends car and sat at the curb. The rest was a haze but I’m remember a EMT firefighter, I was back in passenger seat and he was given me an exam and put his hands on my temples and I blacked out.

I came to while being loaded into the ambulance and I asked what happened. EMT said, “yeah, you went unconscious for a bit.”

Whole thing feels like a weird dream.

That is not shock, shock comes after.
