Social skills are use-it-or-lose-it #shorts

Social cognition is something you use every day—reading expressions, tone of voice, and understanding other people’s intentions. One key part of this is theory of mind: recognizing that others have their own thoughts and goals. These skills are learned early, but they’re maintained through use. When isolation increases, both the practice and the brain systems involved can weaken over time. Connection is how you keep them active. #SocialCognition #MentalHealthAwareness #HumanConnection #BrainHealth #DrTraceyMarks
