I keep seeing "NT" popping up. What does it stand for?

NT means NeuroTypical, which is anyone that isn't autistic.

I think we are all on the spectum.

Maybe the more NT you are the less you can exept that?

maybe the higher on the specrum the greater your insight?

And the further on the spectum you find yourself the more this plannet seems wrong?

and eventually, you cant cope and you see no connection with "this plannet".

BUt I believe God loves us all, where ever on the spectrum we lie, and maybe even the further along the spectrum you are the eaisier it is to see and know and hear God (because you are not interested in this world)?

NT is not the opposite of autistic even though it does get used like that all the time,those who are NT also do not ADHD,schizophrenia,possibly bi polar [cant remember] and a few more conditions [again,cant remember which]..
those who are NT do not have their brain wired differently,like those who are not NT.
