I've tried just opening my eyes, but even the assurance that I'm not moving doesn't stop me from feeling like I am or from feeling sick. I have to sit up and move a bit for it to go away.

This only happens very, very rarely, but I was about to create a thread to ask this question. This is a close enough topic that I figured I'd just keep it here.
SO! I have been dealing with this same sensation since a was young and finally figured out what it’s from!!!! I know it sounds crazy! But I have had so many experiences with this that I know exactly what it is…. It’s from being constipated!!!!!

When I tell drs my symptoms, of feeling like I’m on a circle spinning carnival ride when I close my eyes as I’m drifting off to sleep, they give me weird looks. But this symptom ONLY has occurred when my intestines are full from top to bottom! I have had X-rays taken showing how full my bowels are….. take some miralax or magnesium citrate (for faster results)
