Can an elevator make you dizzy?

I’m working at an Alf and I have literally been on this piece of shit all night going up and down and I feel so dizzy I feel like the world is spinning as I’m walking around

Have you ever experienced anything like this

An elevator can cause dizziness or motion sickness in people who are sensitive to such things. You have been on it a lot so it's more than possible. The problem with closed elevators is that your inner ear senses motion while your eyes don't see motion and that conflict causes the problem. That's also why they tell you that the best way to avoid car sickness is to look out of the window, preferably straight ahead. When your eyes can see what your inner ears feel there is no conflict.

@Longpatrol I can only imagine how illegal that must be right?!??

@DeluxedEdition Maximum illegal
Walk the long endless stairs, both ways, at least thrice a day to get your answer. 🙄.

@sspec I literally can’t find any 😩 they have the stairs blocked off for some reason?!
@DeluxedEdition Find some to follow the idiotic exercise.

Haven't heard of it before, but it sounds plausible. It's not really a natural movement for a human body to accelerate straight up or straight down.
Yes. Its motion sickness. When you are on the elevator, hold your head down. Point your face to the floor so your head is oriented into the direction the elevator car is travelling. That will prevent vertigo and motion sickness. Always orient your face into or away from the direction of travel to prevent any motion sickness.
Sorry you are feeling sick. 🤗🤗🤗
Yes. I feel that sometimes if I am heavily or day drunk and trying to climb up.
