Those of us that have undergone autism-specific therapy or training to learn to socialize better, what lessons did you learn?

These things come to mind at the moment:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Role_reversal How would I judge a situation from another person's perspective? It helped me to understand why others react strange to me.

Learning to really accept myself and to stop judging myself helped me to build some confidence. Which in turn helps to handle (or survive) situations which ask to much from me.

Learning to listen to myself. If I feel, that I don't want to do something, I don't have to. Not now, maybe later, OK?

And of course: Trial and error. It worked fine before. Maybe it can be useful in the future. :)

Star trek

It was a rocky road, but I got there in the end

My children have received autism-specific therapy and learned key NT social skills from it. I am happy to share my understanding of their experience, but I would ask permission first since this question was directed at autistic people and my official role in the family as dad and husband is being "the most neurotypical one."

Edit to add: they have learned skills that help them navigate life, including life in a NT dominant world. I hesitate to label them as NT skills because they are used by my autistic children and maybe the actual skill is approached differently, but that is probably pedantic.
