I get dizzy spells sometimes and it feels like i'm on a rocking boat or severely intoxicated. it lasts about 20 seconds. what is the cause?

Most likely inner ear otolithic instability, which could be tested by an otolaryngologist. If this is not the answer, consider paroxysmal vertigo of migraine, dehydration, postural hypertension.
