Feeling like me and the room is swaying like on a boat.

Today I've noticed while sitting on the sofa that it feels like I'm moving around, yet I'm sat perfectly still.

Sometimes it's like im moving forward and then back, and then if I sit there and concentrate on the feelings I get the sudden dropping sensation as I've described before.

I hate not being able to feel like im still.

Even when I close my eyes, it's like this false sense of motion.

Will it ever go away?

Hi you are not alone I get the same thing and my doctor said its benign proximinal vertigo. I feel like I'm on a boat and when I sit in a seated position I feel like I'm being pulled forward. When I lay down I feel like I'm swaying.

I get this and it really gets my attention.

When it happens, I am 100% sure something is very wrong and it never is.

This symptom is a freaky one.

Who comes up with these symptoms for us from our Maker? IS there a committee somewhere Like with Dr Evil, with his pinky finger in his mouth, saying " oh lets give these folks with anxiety........the rock the boat or push the chair feeling but they are completely still and do a brain psych on them"

Really who comes up with this stuff for us????
