What Is Vertigo Like?


I have vertigo.  Vertigo makes it feel like the floor is pitching up and down.  Things seem to be spinning.  It's like standing on the deck of a ship in really high seas.  - Laura Hillenbrand, author.





Vertigo is hard to explain.  You need to experience it.  Oh, wait, no you don't!

A couple of weeks ago I was having issues and the strangest thing happened.  My New Yorker has tiny stick figure cartoons throughout the magazine with no explanation, no commentary, no credits.

And there they were.  Stick figures struggling with vertigo.  I couldn't believe it.
