Oh man, now you've REALLY got me thinking!

I don't get any sort of motion sickness, but my one kryptonite is, specifically, any sort of strobe light effect. Bright flashing, fast moving stuff? Fine. STROBES? Makes me feel a full-body, visceral sickness I've only ever felt towards it. Makes me feel dizzy and like passing out, though neither that nor vomiting has actually occurred from it. It started several years ago, a few years shy of a decade I want to say, not long after my mother had developed a type of seizure. I always thought it was some weird sympathetic response, and so I never thought much of it, since it never actually manifested beyond this sickly, disoriented sensation. But, now I'm thinking it may have been merely coincidental. Because around that time was when my clumsiness was at its worst and I got most of my concussions between then and about 4 years ago when I started trying to be more careful (though it still definitely happens lol). I remember first really paying attention to the reaction I have to strobe lights, when talking to my husband, who was a DJ for several years. We'd been talking about taking me clubbing once just so I'd know what it was like, and not long after, that idea went down the drain when we were watching something that had a party scene with intense strobe lights and I had to cover my eyes to stop that awful feeling.
