LMNT electrolytes help me a lot with an episode. I drink a good amount of it quickly, and then put my feet up against the wall and lay down.

Also try taking Pepcid AC and and Claritin to help a possible/probable Mast Cell flare that may be causing the POTS

^electrolyte drinks and salt and also this will sound weird but eating a really sour candy helps me when I’m feeling like I’m going to pass out !

When I feel like I’m going to faint or after I faint I always take a few saltstick fast chews and it usually helps pretty quick! Especially if I drink some water with if, but sometimes that gets hard because I become very nauseous too.
