dizzy,flushed and nauseous

today i had one of those whatchamacallit dizzy spells and i felt as if i was flying..it is not a great sensation, i felt like i was seasick. imagine? SEASICK? all these while my two feet are planted firmly on the ground! crazy experience, i mean,i have never,ever had that kind of feeling before, its as if the whole world is spinning round and round and round...all these while you are standing still..heck, even when i was on my bed with my eyes closed shut, i felt as if my room was one huge merry-go-round and i wanted to throw up...


i asked sam what she thought of it and my best friend came up with a really interesting theory...

sam: why do you feel like you are spinning?
geri: its like all the fluid in my head was going nuts,even as i lied down on my bed
sam: are you stressed out?gosh how long did u have it for
geri: i could not even sleep u knw,i felt as if i was going to vomit :S
sam: shit
geri: i was studying,then i felt like it abt 230 like tat,damn dizzy..so i went downstairs, i thought it was my contacts or what..took em out and slept at 4..scary cuz when i lie down on my bed i felt as if i was flying
sam: ok,that sounds really weird,like u r drunk or sumtin
geri: yeah, thats why, and it happened so suddenly, its not a headache
sam: possibly your serotonin went out of control,possibly out of balance..it is usually triggered by a big event or a lot of stress that is being pushed out of the conscious mind
geri: hm? exams is it? it has never happened before
sam: yeah, possible..but it could be other things as well..you see you have never been stressed before..this is your first major exam right? so perhaps you are stressed about this one and your mind hasn't learn to cope with it yet
geri: well maybe deep down i am,but still i take it pretty lightly
sam: yeah thats what you think but that might not be true..being cool is something you have always been right so your mind has learnt to adapt to this but at the back of your mind you are stil worried cuz this time its different
geri: -_-'
sam: so this is where the serotonin comes in to help you cope
geri: by making me so dizzy till i cannot study? not helping!
sam: cuz there is too much, it corresponds to the stress that was hidden from all these years
geri: *blanks out*
sam: so it just exploded in one big bang
geri: body sesat giler
sam: that happens when you are in denial..it blows up one day

it helps to have a friend studying psychology!
