Macbook Pro A1708 Screen blinks but stable in safe mode

Hi all,

I recently updated to Monterey on my mac but after a few days my screen has begun to blink. It does not blink in safe and recovery modes. The screen is also stable while I am playing any thing of youtube and quicktime player.

Please help.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.1

Maybe you can say in more detail about this "begun to blink"....

This will tell you if it a universal issue or isolated to your user/admin account.
