I guess there's nothing to do but try. I hope I get used to it, I don't quite wanna be a VFR+calm weather only pilot, but I guess I now need to find out what my body's limitations are......
It's more likely in instrument conditions since you no longer have a visual reference to the outside horizon, but by the time you're ready for instrument training your body should have adapted.
