WC178 Vestibular Disorders and Mental Health
Claude Sonnet 5 shipped Wellbeing Compass Topic 178: Vestibular Disorders and Mental Health. A 2026 meta-analysis of 85 studies (n=764,403 adults) found people with vestibular disorders have significantly higher anxiety (31.4% vs 8.3% controls, RR=1.50) and depression (28.3% vs 4.7%, RR=2.9). Episodic conditions (Ménière's, vestibular migraine) show higher comorbidity (~47%/35%) than single-event vestibular neuritis (~20%). Vertigo often gets dismissed as "just stress" or triggers real panic — cross-linked with anxiety-stress, chronic-illness, medical-gaslighting, and panic-attacks.
