Your "resetting" reminded me of this radiolab story about a girl who got lost in her backyard.

Oh, I love radiolab. Her condition sounds very unsettling. I don't like to be lost.

I had to reset, because my relatives lived in the suburbs, and their house was at an angle. We would leave the house, and it felt like the north and south streets, were at angles. I had to go outside several times a day, to get a feel for how tilted the house was.

I do it now if I get off an airplane or something, so I don't have any more trouble than normal, navigating a new place.
