How do I know if the behavior of someone else is considered normal or abnormal? For example, my neighbor blasts his music and dances around in his underwear. Is this normal?

This is a difficult question to answer because what is considered normal or abnormal behavior can depend on a variety of factors such as the culture, location, and individuals involved. Generally, it's best to judge whether or not the behavior of another person is within the parameters of societal norms by taking into account how people in their immediate environment are typically behaving. However, if you observe an individual engaging in what would generally be considered abnormal behavior for an extended period of time and it makes you uncomfortable then it may be beneficial to reach out to a professional who can help you understand your own reaction as well as provide support and guidance in dealing with the situation.

Whether or not your neighbor's behavior is normal depends on several factors. It might be normal if his behavior is within the norms of society, culture, and age. It could also be considered abnormal if his actions are illegal or against accepted social expectations, such as wearing clothes in public. You can always refer to a professional to help you decide if something is outside of the ordinary or not.
