Thank you for sharing this. I'm one of those people who has an overlap of symptoms from both conditions. My symptoms came on spontaneously 3 weeks after a traumatic event. I was told by my Vestibular therapist that my symptoms matched PPPD. But I kept hearing that the key difference between PPPD and MDDS is that you feel better when in motion if you have MDDS. So my symptoms matched up with PPPD but I also felt better when I was in motion. I kind of became a little obsessed with finding the exact right diagnosis, and had to let that go. In the end, the key to my recovery was doing VRT, CBT, managing my anxiety through meditation, and building back up to doing the things I was doing before. All of these things had to be done at the same time for me to recover. These days I do have flair ups every so often, but for the most part I'm 95% functional with little to no background dizziness.

You give me some hope because medical doctors don't know anything about this... I hope it is just anxiety causing all this after my panic attack...

K., I know the dizziness is a huge source of stress, but in my experience, it’s not the real/underlying source of stress. Sometimes it is almost like the brain uses dizziness as a distraction from stress or trauma that is too painful or difficult to deal with. However helping stop the fear response to the dizziness is a huge part of getting better. Please try somatic tracking and see how that feels (Brain exercises playlist)

@@k.baller5140 have you ever had butterflies in your stomach when you are nervous? Emotions manifest in our bodies ALL the time. They just sometimes take on more extreme forms. Take a look back at the last year and see if you can figure out what kinds of stress you may have been under. Then make a list going back for several years. See if it starts to make more sense why your body is expressing emotions this way.

Wow, This is so relieving. I’ve been going nuts trying to figure out why being in movement makes me feel better. The second I’m sitting, laying, or standing still, I have instant vertigo. This first started in elevators, when I’d get off a short trip, I’d feel like I’d keep riding an elevator for hours. Even after a two story climb. I’ve resulted to self medicating with Benadryl, over the counter anxiety meds. I had gone weeks with no sleep, I was close to loosing a job where I was easily supporting my family, I was having terrible panic attacks every night when I’d finally fall asleep, I’d wake up heart pounding minutes later, spinning and completely disoriented. Just knowing I’m not alone, helps so so much.

@@TheSteadyCoach - First off, thank you for the time, it’s a rarity these days. So if it’s in danger mode, are all these symptoms a precursor to a bigger problem? It is slightly getting better with stretches, but I still wake up, at least, a few times each night and I’ll be in complete “Fight or flight” mode. I get up, put my arms as high as I can, and stretch till I catch my breath. So similar to your video here, I thought I was just having bouts of PTSD and panic attacks, really gas lighting myself. I still can’t convince myself that this isn’t all in my head… Not sure what I’m getting at here, it’s just tiring. Some days the fight does seem insurmountable, so I have to reach down deep to pull that motivation… Thank you for videos like these, they do help people and bring some solace to those of us that feel like we are loosing our minds. Well, maybe we are, a little, but that’s what makes us different than the status quo.

But I know it won't be long until I feel I'm right back on that ship again. Working in the IT industry, it's hard to do simple tasks that I would otherwise easily do and having to sit in a seat for a 12hour shift makes things worse. It's so debilitating 😓 I try to avoid bus rides, elevators and even playgrounds where my kids can enjoy themselves. Here in South Africa, I'm yet to even find a doctor that can diagnose and treat this. I hope you find some relief soon.

Hi Dr. Yonit, First of all, Thank You for posting these incredibly helpful videos for people suffering with dizziness (including me). It is almost an year since I first started having symptoms of dizziness. It started for the first time when I was on a long flight (9 hours). I had a severe dizziness on that flight followed by a panic attack as I didn’t know what was happening. That happened on my way back from a holiday, so I thought it was going to go away in few days with enough sleep and rest. Unfortunately, it kept happening. I saw doctors, physiotherapists and balance therapists. Nothing worked until I started watching your videos. I am a lot better now in terms of handling the anxiety and keeping calm (thanks to you and your brain exercises playlist), however, I am yet to be fully recovered. My symptom trigger is mostly related with movements. When I am on a train, when it’s moving it’s fine but as soon as it stops or moves slow I get really dizzy and my brain gets really confused but also if it’s moving too fast then that makes me confused and dizzy. I don’t avoid getting on a train, in fact, sometimes I take trains just to challenge myself to normalise my symptoms. Also, I get dizzy when I am working because I have to constantly look at computers and excel files (I am an accountant). I have managed to disregard the symptoms or accept the symptoms for when I am not on a moving vehicle but for the travel part is still an issue. I just wanted to get your suggestion in terms of what kind of exercises will be best for me and do you think I have PPPD or MDDS? Thank you again for changing lives and helping people to heal. 😊 YOU ARE AMAZING.

I actually got diagnosed with Vestibular Migraine. Dizziness that’s constant, which is leg heavy and imbalanced dizziness, and headaches that come and go are part of VM diagnosis. And now that I remember, back in February, I had vertigo which was then follow by a terrible headache. And then from then on, I only had vertigo for a few minutes and life was pretty much normal up until the end of June, in which was constant bouncing, and body moving with bad headaches. My neurologist prescribed me with Divalproex and B2. I’m going to do my own VRT as well and hopefully I feel better. What’s weird too is that when I run, I don’t feel the bouncing. So strange.

@MaeganMemories I think things started to get better after 3 months, one day I woke up feeling not so bad and that decreased my anxiety and increased my belief that it really could get better. Then, I was hit with bad days again and then good ones and So I started to understand the pattern and that made me less anxious and worried. Just ride the bad days and bad symptoms out and don’t freak out about them, that’s what I still do. I did VRT which really helped as well and have been taking supplements. Vit D, magnesium glycinate , fish oil. Coq10 and vit B complex. Controlling anxiety and mindset is number 1 I would say. Also expose yourself gently to the busy environments and activities, that will re-train your brain. Best of luck!

It can also be really helpful to get you out of fight or flight mode when you're stuck there. But I'd say that when people have many symptoms without any triggers, the emotional parts of the work become more important.

Hey Dr. Yonit. I recently joined your wonderful community. I have to admit, I am now crying and in fear, I can‘t even explain. I don‘t know how to feel about any of this. I am so afraid I could have MDD but I will tell you why. Any help and answer from you would be so good to my heart and soul. My symptoms gets worse when I turn my head left and right up and down, it‘s like the picture is swaying for 1 seconds. Then it goes away. But… When I sit on the floor still with I feel the floor moving, like swaying a bit and also when I sit. When I stand, It‘s less severe, almost not noticable. But when I sleep on the left and right, I can feel it, not much. Only when I move my neck or head I feel that dizzy wave. But here is the deal: I am doing Vestibular excercises for one week now, and the moving on the floor almost stopped. Its a bit still there while sitting but not that much anymore. When I stand still and do balancing postures like The treew pose in yoga I can‘t feel the dizziness it goes away. After the Excercises I immerdiate feel better on the floor and sitting, it‘ like it‘s going away. But I am so scared now because since yesterday I am doing new balace, vestibular excercisws giving by my therapist, that includes excercises on the balance pad, and when I am doing them in standing still and with neck movement I don‘t feel anything, and the sitting and standing there is no dizzy feeling more. But since I am doing the new excercises I got so dizzy last night while laying in my bed side to side, then it got away after couple seconds when I was in still position. Then I woke up to sit and thr floor still and there was no swaying or movement. I sat in peace. This morning I woke up and that feeling got away, but I am so afraid that I got dizzier, because I felt so good all day yesterday. I am so discouraged now, I can‘t even explain and I am afraid I may have MDDs. Please replay my dear. Sending love and light. 🌸💜

Thanks a lot for your videos. I discovered my disorder thanks to your vidéos.I m French and my vestibular therapist doesn't even Know there are different types of disorders... I go to rehab twice a week but I m not sure I do the correct exercices. I m feeling much better after 3 months of rehab and CBT but When I m standing still I feel a slight dizziness. This is the Last symptom I can't get away with... Do you have specific rehab for this Dizziness which doesn't stop when you don't move ?

Hi Anne, so glad to hear about your progress. Don't worry, there are not really "wrong" or "right" exercises. If they cause symptoms, and you're getting better, you are doing the right exercises. For dizziness when standing still, have you tried somatic tracking? It's on the brain exercises playlist. You can stand and do the exercise while standing and feeling the slight dizziness.

I suffered traumatic brain injury after an accident last Januari. I got hit by a car while cycling home. Causing TBI, stroke/brainbleeds all over, brain contusion and severse concussion. Also a lot of amnesia (retrograde & anterograde). Hospital, rehabilitation hospital and neurological rehabilitation therapists are all kinda clueless with my symptoms. And I am hoping to find more information. Maybe someone else reconizes? After the accident I feel like I'm on a boat. Inconcissent movement. It's not dizziness persé, more like being in the water and high waves are coming from all sides, swaying me in all directions. I don't feel lightheaded. It's more a feeling from deep inside my head. I can't sleep. I'm always wide awake, like in a constant survivalmode. I'm not tired either. While laying down I like my head 'blocked in'. With towel rolls. It helps me rest. While floating in the water, with the therapist helping me float, I felt like I was in a rollercoaster. Up, down, circles ... and I had to throw up and stabalize myself in the swimmingpool corner. Also constant are a low sounding echo/ringing in my ears. And 'migraine aura', wave-like visuals. Like watching the heat 'move' on a hot road. Anyome who reconizes my symptoms or has mpre information I could share with my socters and therapists here in the orthopedic & neurological rehab center? Thanks in advance and sorey for my grammer. I'm from the Netherlands.

How did your treatment go at Mount Sinai? I hope you had a positive experience. I was there in early June, but the protocol I received as part of the study was not helpful for my symptoms (primarily backward & left side gravitational pull). The at-home protocol I was given by Dr. Yakushin, based on my study protocol, has not made any impact on my symptoms. I am returning in 2 weeks for a different treatment, as my 6-month commitment to the study will be over. I also have visually induced dizziness while driving (pressure & pulling around the eyes, sensitivity to patterning on roadways from sun/tree shadows, but not as the passenger or while in any other type of passive motion. This makes it hard to get my kids where they need to go & to accomplish day-to-day tasks that require driving. I feel amazing while I’m outside running, though, so at least I still have that! It took about 18 months to be diagnosed with MdDs, and I’m currently 3 yrs into this nightmare. My symptoms began during a 30-minute drive home on winding backroads during a massive rainstorm (picture: windshield wipers going at their fastest speed). I started to feel nauseous, then dizzy on this drive and felt I was either going to vomit or pass out. I then panicked (had no idea that it was a panic attack, as it was my first). I pulled over for about 5 min. & then very carefully drive home. I felt shaken, but relatively normal as the adrenaline started to wear off…until the next morning when I got up for the day & the “trampoline walking” began and any time in stillness felt like I swaying/bobbing. Lying down for bed is by far the worst for me, though, but surprisingly, once I’m asleep I sleep well. I have hope for the next round of treatment, and I’ve just discovered Dr. Yonit today, so there’s a lot more I can be doing to recover. Not giving up!

My tests weren't normal. VNG showed spontaneous unbeat nystagmus confirmed that I have dizziness of central origin. Diagnosed with mdds, vm, pppd, chiari malformation, dysautonomia, and so much more. There is literally nothing that helps despite the fact that I have been diagnosed now. My doctors are blaming all my symptoms on my stress levels causing migraines and then they shuffle me off to the next doctor who is also clueless. Unless i am willing to try antidepressants or antiepileptic medications I am screwed.

I actually address this in the first module of my course (just released it yesterday and it's free- members.thesteadycoach.com/free-chronic-dizziness-course ). Central dizziness CAN cause physical symptoms like nystagmus. Your diagnoses are all different names for neural circuit dizziness. Your stress is 100% the driver behind your symptoms but not necessarily in the way you might think. Stress is not always external or obvious.

Жыл бұрын
It's a tricky question and one that I need to address in a video. True Meniere's is not neural circuit dizziness, but most people who are diagnosed with Meniere's don't actually have Menieres- they have neural circuit dizziness.
My symptoms came on the first time after a cruise. After 9 months they went away. I had done various exercises and other stuff to get to that point. I was diagnosed with Mdds. The second time I also got it after a cruise. Much milder and slightly different. I was again diagnosed with mdds and did VRT and had the opto kinetic treatment which helped slightly but the dizziness never completely went away. This is about ten years ago it restarted. I now wonder if it wasn't mdds. In that time I have already had Bppv which was treated and cured. Recently within 18 months of each other I have had covid and am suffering with long covid leaving me with aches and pains too. This also has made the dizziness worse. All the time I have the cog fog which makes doing more than one thing a day hard. I get worse and more tired as the day wears on. I now am not sure what to do for the best. Rest or exercise or what. If I rest I seize up and it takes a while to free off. I find some of your videos helpful but it is hard to know where I am going. Any ideas please Dr Yo.

Hi Fabian, good to see you here again! The chronic neck pain and anxiety are big red flags for PPPD. It's not so much that they "cause" PPPD, dizziness or vision problems. You can think of PPPD as a physical symptom of anxiety for some people. So people who have anxiety are much more likely to develop PPPD.

Hi Lucy, it depends on what he meant by treating it as anxiety or depression. Where I live, most people with anxiety or depression are just given pills or standard CBT therapy for those disorders, with poor success. I think the same can be said for PPPD. That said, I think it is wise to recognize that PPPD is often a physical expression of anxiety, so treating the PPPD has to involve treating the emotions around it as well. The brain and body are connected 100% of the time!

Can you have both conditions at the same time? I had servere pain and partial deafness followed by extreme vertigo from a flight. After a couple of months this vertigo subsided into what I was diagnosed with as mdds. Purely as the only time it goes away is as a passenger in a car. I struggle extremely when standing still and head turns shops movements around me patterns etc but also struggling immensely when trying to walk the only time it settles in being a passenger in a car. On your description I fit exactly to how you describe both. I have recently just been diagnosed with 3pd. Do u have both? I suppose the ear issue on the flight could have created the 3pd and the actual flight itself created the mdds? I'd be interested in your thoughts on this?

I did walk/slow jog in intervals for 2 miles today and i noticed it intensified the swaying a few hours later this evening.
