My grandmother would frequently put the back of her hand to her forehead and complain mightily about having the vapors. The posture was usually accompanied by shallow breathing while her other hand fanned her face rapidly. My dad (her son) would just roll his eyes and ignore her. She always seemed to be in good health to me whenever she got the vapors.

I had always thought "the vapors" were gas
