dizzily
In spinning fashion
Dizzily describes doing something in a dizzy manner—with a sensation of spinning or unsteadiness: She stumbled dizzily after the ride.
It extends to mental disorientation or bewilderment: He dizzily tried to process all the news at once.
The word can also convey a whirling, rapid quality: Events moved dizzily forward.
