    Abstract:
    It is a well-known fact, and there are several publications on this matter, the links between panic attacks, simulation, anxiety, depression and lightheadedness or imbalance, but in our perusal of the related literature no connection between pathological mourning, dizziness and imbalance was found. In this paper are reported the outcomes of a prospective study of 58 patients suffering vertigo and imbalance as well and psychiatrically assessed. Pathologic mourning shows its predominance among otic vertiginous. This feature, we think, should be investigated when collecting the anamnesis of patients complaining of dizziness and/or imbalance in order to planning the appropriate treatment.
