Can you become more NT by being more social?

[appealisLAW]

For example can someone who is naturally introverted and ND become more NT by being around people everyday and kind of going out of his comfort zone or is it all genetics?

Are you a diagnosed autist?

No it’s not all genetics, but if you are naturally ND you will most likely have to do much more exposure therapy than the average person does. If you are 2x more ND than the average normie you probably have to go out of your comfort zone 5x harder than the average normie, like doing ayuhaysca with random hippies in a remote Congolese jungle type shit, not just going to the club every weekend. In the past a lot of socially dysfunctional men would join the army or peace corps for this reason.

no such thing as “becoming more nt” you’re either born with neurotypicality or you’re not

Yes, you can improve by increasing social exposure. Will it make eradicate your neuro-divergence though? Unlikely.

Yes, people act like these aren't skills.
