agree  Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D.: You are barking up the right tree. Here, it may be physical disorientation, which requires the subject to lie down, lest he/she lose balance.

  -> Yes, it seems rather physical should the two sentences make some sense. Thank you and enjoy the day!

Reference: Turn around - options

Reference information:
Turn around
- odwrócić losy/ zmienić stan rzeczy/ doświadczyć zmiany (na lepsze) ALE:

ALE TAKŻE: (znaczenie idiomatyczne- nie czasownik frazowy sensu stricto czy nawet largo :)
idiomatic, buzzword, with "180 degrees") To effect a positive reversal of a trend.

(idiomatic, buzzword, with "360 degrees") To make a situation worse by trying to make it better

Turnaround jako rzeczownik może też rzucić jakieś światło :) na te mroczne pytanie :) ( przepraszam- pytanie nie jest mroczne- kontekst:) . PS. Kontekst jest troszkę zbyt ubogi na jednoznaczną odpowiedź.
Jak połączyć to z lie down? .....;
