Spatial disorientation can be described as one's inability to orient themselves in 3-dimensional space. In this state, a person can not distinguish up from down, right from left, or any two different directions from another. One might also perceive the world as being flipped sideways or even upsidedown. This effect is relatively uncommon and happens mostly on hallucinogenics at high dosages. It is also worth noting that this effect is usually triggered indirectly, for example by laying sideways, doing a handstand or looking into a tilted mirror. It differes from just seeing the environment flipped by making the user actually perceive it that way, which usually results in the outside world appearing strange and unrecognizable. This effect is described as confusing and is sometimes accompanied by changes in gravity.
