When i close my eyes, why does it feel like i'm moving?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inner ear: A person's sense of where they are in relation to their environment is based on clues from vision, brain, inner ear and foot/hand positions. When you close your eyes, your inner ear becomes your dominant determinant of your position in space. This is normal for some people.
