Constant dizziness? How does PPPD develop?

Often it starts with an acute dizziness trigger: a positional vertigo, One of them Vestibular neuritis, Menière's disease, One of them vestibular migraine or also to one Whiplash trauma. During this acute phase, your brain is completely and rightly switching into alarm mode to protect you.

But what happens when PPPD (persistent postural-perceptual dizziness)?

The original trigger has long since healed or passed; but the brain forgets to turn the alarm off again!
👉 It remains in a state of sustained high-alert and overinterprets normal signals from the eyes, inner ear, and muscles.
👉 Actually harmless stimuli are mistakenly assessed by the brain as a danger – the result is constant fluctuations, muscle tension, and anxiety.
