For some disorders like BPPV, yes, vertigo can be treated and will essentially go away. Other types of vertigo are part of chronic disorders. The key to living well with vertigo is to understand it and have a solid safety plan so that if and when an attack comes, you are prepared. Working with your diagnostic and treatment team—particularly a physical therapist—can be very helpful in creating and maintaining this plan.
On the psychological side, it’s important to get peer support for chronic vertigo. The Vestibular Disorders Association website can connect you to local and remote [support groups](https://vestibular.org/support-groups/). With the support of these folks, as well as an ongoing relationship with your healthcare team, living with vertigo is possible and doesn’t need to be scary or dangerous.
