Land sickness - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Anyone get it? On water I'm fine, no issues. Laid in bed last night and had to put my foot on the floor so my head would stop spinning.

Your spending way too much time on the water.
look in mirror and check behind your ears. Are you
beginning to grow fish gills?

That happens to me from time to time, its usually on the days when I go fishing right after working a graveyard shift and fish for 10hrs or so.

I think these are the moods

Do you take dramamine? I've taken it twice and got land sickness both times.

It's called Residual Motion Sickness. It deals with the bones in the inner ear being in constant motion. When the motion stops it takes a long while for the bones to react to normal movement. People on cruise ships can experience this for days.

Vertigo....its what I have, It comes and goes....

silentviper · 04-22-2013, 10:46 AM

I call it stillness illness. The only cure I've found is sleeping

"Seasick On Land"

The final phase
A walk on hayes
A punchbowl argument
The swallowed flames
The drunken dames
That looked like helium

I need this now
Just like you told me not to
I breed this now
Just get me off of the boat for a little while

The war it came
With fifty men
That stretched out over their graves
Declared a war
And killed some more
And killed some more again

I need this now
Just like you told me not to
I breed this now
Just get you off of my back for a little while

I find that that problem goes away when I bring less beer with me on my fishing trips.
