Specializes in Psychiatry

Anxiety: You are anxious. Do you have vestibular disorders? Have you had problems in cars, trains or airplanes? Mal de debarquement (sickness of disembarkment) usually resolves in 24 hours if it occurs. You are probably referring to cases in which symptoms last much longer. Do you really want fear of the possible (even if very low possibility) to determine what you do in life?
