What is healing?

[Mr.50's]

is healing from visuals just down regulation of the 5ht2a receptor overtime? Is it different in everyone?

We don't know nothing about HPPD is really known but the best guess is the 5ht2a being down regulated effecting how serotonin works in the brain. As for healing though, who knows. It's possible it just takes a really long ass time for the brain to fully repair that part of the brain to full functionality. Not to upset anyone, but personally I think it's permanent for people who have heavy tracers and after images and visual snow such as me. I live with it just fine luckily, but it does for sure get better in time if drugs are avoided. The best way to heal hppd is to ignore it as much as you can and eventually your life will be normal again. Took me a while to adjust.
