What Causes Sudden Onset Of Fainting Episodes?

Six times within a period of 25 years I have fainted.Doctors tell me the cause was rising too rapidly rom a lying or seated position. This does not seem logical because if it is so, then why did I not faint hundreds of times when I rose rapidly on numerous other occasions? Than you.
