Hi,
The sick and debilitated feeling due to labyrinthitis is mostly due to the disease itself and also due to the drugs given to sedate the hyperactive labyrinth.
There are mainly three things that could help
1. Labyrinthine sedatives
2. Bed rest and hydration
3. Adequate time...that means you must give the time for your brain and labyrinth to get adjusted. Don't rush and don't be depressed. You need rest and other's help at present and don't be harsh on yourself for that.
