    It's honestly so tempting to ignore the dizziness when it's been going on for some time and no one seems to believe you because tests show you should be fine. For me the worst of it was always the brain fog. The dizziness comes and goes (mostly comes), but the brain fog is nearly constant. In the last few weeks, however, I've started seeing a decent therapist and watching your videos, and I've noticed I have less trouble remembering things. I'm still annoyingly forgetful and spaced-out, but where before it'd take me hours to remember what I'd meant to buy or where I'd meant to go, now it often takes me only a few minutes. It's so small an improvement I'm not sure it's significant, but it's there. I recently watched a young woman's video in which she talked about her experience with PPPD and she said that for her, she didn't notice a change day after day, but eventually months later she noticed she was symptoms-free and couldn't remember the last time she hadn't been. Is that your experience too? Can improvement be so gradual it almost seems nonexistent from one week to the next? In any case, thank you so much for doing this. This last year and a half has been so lonely for me, and in large part because no one seemed to believe that I'm struggling, since there's no visible evidence of it. Finding your channel has been a relief and for the first time in a long while I feel a little less hopeless.

    I hear you! Brushing them off (ugh just go away already) makes sense when you’ve been suffering for so long. I hope one of the alternatives resonate with you. You are NOT ALONE! And yes, change is incremental and has lots of ups and downs. I discourage people from tracking progress via symptoms for that reason. A wise community member says he looks at his progress over months, not days or weeks.

Your videos on chronic dizziness have provided some relief just listening to you talk about that there is hope for these symptoms to disappear. Ive been suffering with chronic dizziness for over two years with no hope for recovering after seeing several doctors in my area. Im wondering if my symptoms are cervicogenic, PPPD or because i need to fill my prescription for eye glasses, plus im also going to need cataract surgery. I have too many stressors in my life and my brain is exhausted with this chronic dizziness 24/7. I will be very grateful for any input you can provide. God bless.

The fatigue and brainfog are just another reason to beat up on myself and it feels like such a whack-a-mole trying to get on top of that. Any tips on what helps you with stuff like that would be much appreciated!

    Hi Dr. Yo ! I've been watching the videos for a while now. This was a great question , I was wondering about it myself I thought "What if I just try to ignore this ?". I had a question, if you can't answer it I understand but here goes. I've developed my issue soon after my son passed. After reading a lot, I feel that the grief and trauma initiated this although I was stressed before this happened. I began to trip over nothing, then it progressed quickly to feeling like walking on ice when I was on a slippery floor like tile or even concrete. I only felt safe on grass or carpet. Something that I called traction positive. I can walk ok with an assistive device even if it's a grocery shopping cart. Here's the question. If I am in an open space, I begin to get panic attacks and I lock up and freeze in place. My body wants to lower itself to keep from falling. I have to have something to hold onto like a person to get across where I am going. I can remember being at work when the very first panic attack happened, I think that might have been the very beginning. I know you can't diagnose but this panic attack thing, I can't find anything about it. I'm fine in confined spaces. I have a neuro consult pending scheduling . Just wondering if you knew about this. If you spoke about this in a video, I'm sorry. Thank you

    Rest assured that what you describe is EXACTLY what many of the people here on the channel go through. I once had a client who would have panic attacks from looking at garage doors (because of the pattern of the doors) or going into malls. If medical stuff checks out, it is usually a nervous system over-response that is the result of the kind of stress you've undergone. I am so deeply sorry for your loss. It makes 100% sense to me that your body would respond in this way.

    thank you so much for your amazing content it’s always so helpful and encouraging! I recently came across an Instagram account that talks about vestibular issues and she mentioned PPPD being something that you are able to heal from however if you have VM or Menieres there’s no cure for that and you usually just have “periods” of remission or you can keep your sensations “tolerable”. I struggle with VM and constant vertigo and I found this to be very discouraging. What are your thoughts? This has spiked my anxiety quite a lot :(

    I have another one about that, but this is truly an art form- I’ve been trying to crack the code on how to teach people how to do this, but it’s so individual. Here’s what I’ve come to so far: your goal ultimately is to learn how to communicate with your own nervous system, kind of in the way you might become attuned to a beloved child or a pet. There is no black and white answer about when to push and when not to. Your goal in recovery is to learn to attune to your own nervous system so you know when to push and how.

I have a complicated case of sleep apnea, which caused me to have brain injury due to the saturations at night, I have been able to fix the problem, but I'm left with chronic dizziness and vision issues like you have described in some of your videos. i'm not sure what my exact diagnosis is at this point although I have seen vestibular physical therapist and I did have a complex evaluation at Ohio State University. I have an appointment with a vestibular physician in a few months.. I would love to be able to talk with you and see what you think about my current symptoms .

    Hi Ron, very sorry you're going through this. It will be most useful if you reach out after you've seen the vestibular specialist. Since there is potential brain injury, we need to know if that is the cause of symptoms, or if that doesn't explain them. This is a really useful video to watch for guidance on how to approach the medical exam. Asking point blank if you have medical clearance is a really important component. kzread.info/dash/bejne/oXl9kppwota1gKQ.html

    Thank you for this video! I've had dizziness for 4 years (as if the floor is swaying) but for the last 3 weeks I've been getting severe vertigo in my head (before it wasn't with head movements, turning etc, now it is). I have worked on myself a lot over the last few years and have actually felt more stable apart from an anxiety disorder and chronic fatigue. I'm now wondering if it can be caused by grinding my teeth because I also have a lot of neck problems as a result. Do you know if there could be something to it? Or maybe vestibular migraine due to tmj? I'm surprised that it's worse than ever at the moment and it's hard for me to identify with pppd because I've had it so badly for 3 weeks without a break or trigger. I would be very interested in your opinion, your videos have given me a bit of support over the last few weeks.

    All of the syndromes you mentioned are often neural circuit symptoms. The more symptoms someone has that are medically unexplained, the more likely it is that they all have a single common cause- mindbody disorder (aka neural circuit symptoms). I see lots of TMJ issues and neck pain as well as migraines among my clients and all of those issues get better when they start addressing the root cause- stress/emotional distress, etc.

Many of my symptoms have been made worse, come back with stress or anxiety. ENT gave me Cawthorne Cooksey Exercises and I’ve been following your Somatic suggestions and other balance exercises. I didn’t get much Tinnitus as a symptom over the past 8 months but suddenly this morning had very loud Tinnitus and my hearing in the affected ear has dropped significantly. Lasted a couple of hrs and the Tinnitus appears to be disappearing and the hearing slowly coming back. Is this also possible with PPPD ?

    Thank you! Would this also apply to symptoms related to screens? I never had problems with screens until I had a brain injury in June of of 2019 but the screen problems didn’t start right away. But maybe not because my husband started a relationship, filed for divorce made some really emotionally traumatizing decisions, then Covid hit and we had to sell our house during Covid. And lots of other stuff happened. Interesting if I had no dizziness or screen trouble AT ALL for the 3 months I lived with my brother and his wife who live on an island by the water and they supported me. Everything g has been bad for more than 18 months now. And now I am on disability. I’d like to “I qualify” myself. Thanks

    Got that feeling of swaying or being on a boat last Thanksgiving. Been a year and I only get relief when driving a car. Had 3 episodes of nystagmus throughout the year that only happened when waking up and turning head while laying flat.(super dizzy) Other than that I dont experience intense spinning, aside from the nystagmus moments. Just swaying. Did a balance test and they said I scored above average for my age. Wonder whats causing it.. my doc said ear crystals. bppv. But from what I hear it sounds like pppd. Sure would love to get off of this ride. Great videos btw. Very hopeful.

    It's fairly easy to check for crystals and the treatment is pretty straightforward if you can find someone who knows what they're doing. My VR therapist does it all the time (to other patients, he's really not great at privacy) and they're always vertigo-free within 10 days. You might want to check for it anyway, it might be part of the problem even if it's not all of it.

    Hi Dr Yo, wondering if my spontaneous MdDS is because I have a tilted pelvis, .07cm leg difference so not much difference as its under a cm. When I limp half the time depending on how my hips are that day and my body being on an angle when walking sometimes could this be y my brain isn't coping properly as its trying to compensate with balancing issues? I understand it's from a lot of stress too because of leg pain etc too.

    I get dizzy spells mostly while driving and in rich visual stimuli, what i usually do is i try to put on a good podcast or an informative video in order to surf through symptoms so that im not paying much attention to them, and once the exacerbate i try to calm down through breathing. I have to drive literally 5-6 hours daily because of work. Dr.Yo is this approach right? Or is should do something else.

    I have a chronic Lyme infection along with two co infections. The presumption is that this is causing many of my visual and balance disorders.

    Even if a physical cause set off initial symptoms, what you need to get better is for your nervous system to learn that the triggers are not sources of danger. In other words, the oversensitivity of the nervous system is usually what leads to chronic symptoms, so yes, this is applicable.

    Hi Dr. I hope you can help me. I've had this dizziness for more than 3 years, it's like you're on a boat that's moving. It only started when I had a panic attack after a few months after my mother died. I've been to many doctors, my laboratory said it's normal. The ENT doctor said to me It's anxiety and the neurogist doctor said it's either psychological because he can't see me moving while my eyes are closed, he put me in a water view, he said I have sinusitis, I've taken a lot of medicine, food supplements, and anti depressant but none of them had none effect I did not follow up check up with the psychiatrist..
