Like djmmm mentioned, cataplexy is a symptom of narcolepsy & *MIGHT* explain your fainting. Still, a strong rush of emotion - fear in your case - can cause very fast hormonal/chemical changes in a person, pulling blood away from the brain to vital organs.
And yes! It's very important to mention this to a doctor. A character flaw in you? Hardly!! It sounds more like a character flaw of your husband that he needs to work on.
