Gravity and graviception are understudied across all mind and health sciences, I think. It’s so fundamental and affects so many higher-order functions, including selfhood. Even depression and anxiety are implicated. Dizziness is just the tip of the iceberg
The sensation we call dizziness is a sort of general alarm system for the body—but just as a fire alarm can’t tell you where a fire is burning (or whether someone walked through the emergency exit by mistake), it doesn’t necessarily tell you what’s wrong. www.newyorker.com/culture/anna...
Why Dizziness Is Still a Mystery
Balance disorders like vertigo can be devastating for patients—but they’re often invisible to the doctors who treat them.
