There is a reciprocal relationship between vestibular and neuropsychological disorders. People with vertigo and dizziness are at higher risk of various psychiatric disorders, particularly anxiety, depression, and panic disorder. On the other hand, people with mood disorders are at higher risk of experiencing vertigo and dizziness. Vestibular information plays a crucial role in cognitive processes, especially visuo-spatial abilities. Consequently, vestibular disorders (both peripheral and central) often result in visuo-spatial deficits. In addition, lesions of the cortical and subcortical components of the vestibular system result in disorders of higher vestibular function, such as hemispatial neglect, pusher syndrome, and topographagnosia.
