One afternoon the carousel started up again

One afternoon I was at home and the carousel started up again. I was doing pretty well, having less and less vertigo and then around 4PM the room started spinnng. I was worried about hitting my head into the coffee table, and losing my ability to cope so I asked my neighbors to come over and sit with me. Janie held my hand to comfort me and to hold me so I couldn't hurt myself. Bill sat by us too worrying about me, thinking to call 911. I told them that was not necessary, just to be there and stay with me until it passed. I knew I was freaking them out so I calmed their worries too.
After awhile it passed and then it takes me awhile to recover from the episode which usually leads to a little depression. Then, it's on with the day.
