If you are beginning to notice a vertigo attack occurring, or you are dealing with vertigo, the best thing you can do is lay down in a dark, quiet room, close your eyes, and focus on taking deep breaths. This will not only help with any nausea symptoms but also help the spinning sensation. It is important to avoid stressful situations that cause anxiety and anger, as these can make your vertigo symptoms much worse. There are other exercises and procedures that you can do to help vertigo to cease; however, these are best performed by the advice of a medical professional, as they need to ensure you focus the directions correctly in order not to make vertigo worse, or to ensure you do not hurt yourself.
