What is the problem?
Yesterday there was a fight in my family. My wife (being a lady) is not allowed to Express her views or pain with my family. I don't know what happened, she suddenly felt suffocated and went to change her dress to feel some air. The moment she walked 2-3 steps she fell down. It was kind of half unconsciousness. She was not able to breath, her energy levels were becoming very low, for few minutes she behaved as if she is going to have fits. Her feet and palms became so cold and she started to shiver a little too. We made her drink some water. She was not even opening her eyes but she was kind of blinking her eyelids. She was not even talking. We made her sit for few minute and gave her some water and ORS frequently. After 20-30 minutes, she started being okay. Later when she was able to talk a little , she told that she was not able to hear what we were talking or open her eyes during that half unconsciousness period. This is not first time. This had happened in the past too.

The symptoms described by you requires a detailed evaluation and it looks like a psychiatric illness. Although there's nothing to worry about this particular illness as it's precipitated by stress and  familial issues, but the condition if psychiatric, can be treated with medicines and therapies.
