What Is Causing Blackouts And Body Shaking?

blacked out vision, falling, body shaking
For about a year now I have these episodes where I am conscious but I can't see, I fall to the ground and my body shakes. The last time this happened I was speaking and complete nonsense came out of my mouth. It seems to be getting more severe. What could be causing this?
