Possible Causes*

1. *Vestibular disorders*: Inner ear problems, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), labyrinthitis, or vestibular migraine, can cause dizziness, giddiness, and falling sensations.
2. *Anxiety and panic disorders*: Severe anxiety and panic attacks can manifest physically, leading to symptoms like dizziness, stomach discomfort, and a feeling of being pushed.
3. *Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS)*: This condition causes a rapid heart rate and other symptoms, including dizziness and lightheadedness, when standing upright.
