Hi,
I'm a OWD with 10 logged dives. Within the last year I have had two incidents whilst diving in Britain. Both have occured during descent in cold murky waters. When I reach about 5-18m I suddenly seem to lose all orientation. The first dive I suddenly decided to bolt to the surface - very lucky that the dm grabbed my fin and stopped me! The 2nd time was very different. i felt like I was spinning really fast, I don't know quite what happened, but it ended up with me on the bottom. My problem is tht between these two incidents I have dived several times in warm, clear water with absolutely no problems. I would be really grateful if anyone could give me some sort of reason/advice!
