If you think about it, the endogenous system doesn't function any differently than other receptors -- serotonin itself causes 5-HT2A receptor internalization. In terms of why antagonists act weird -- I guess it is a bad thing if 5-HT2A is highly activated (probably not too surprising given how much agonists can disrupt normal function).
5-HT2A levels eventually return to normal levels when antagonists are discontinued.
