#misc tag#yes. it's like after you break a bone#while you're healing and not using the muscles they will atrophy#if you want to rebuild that strength you have to start using that metaphorical muscle again#being smart is not a fixed state. it's a skill that you can improve upon just like any other#eta: it's important to note that while there are certain important developmental milestones for cognitive development#the human brain never really stops growing or changing#iirc there's a point around sixty where it seems to taper off and become more difficult to learn new things#but it does not become impossible nor does the brain cease to posses it's neuroplasticity#gets off my soap box
