I've been trying for over 2 years to develop better personality traits like confidence, social awareness, charisma, agreeableness etc but it never worked.
I know what I need to do, how to act to be liked by people, but in social situations I just can't do it, I always revert to my current personality.
 
Have you tried showering ?

Surgery, when done correctly, seems to improve your personality a lot.
 
I heard lead is a good cure for mentalcels
 
I'm a physicalcel AND mentalcel
so the chances of me "improving" my personality is low

Nerdy psychological explanation:
The reverting you describe are reaction patterns called Schemes in Schematherapy. They are developed over the years and are bascially an automated "macro" so you react faster to e.g. perceived threats. The patterns skip the analysis part of the situation and make you jump to conclusions and reactions, built on your past experiences in similar situations so e.g. you immediately start fighting the perceived threat. Spoiler: Not so helpful in social situations, when your schemas are formed by negative experiences. It takes a while to change them, by acting out a lot of those situation in the new way, forging a new pattern.

This actually makes 100% sense, thank you

Same, but I want to at least have friends so I'm working more on the mental aspect
 
no man. its not impossible

I'm mostly a mentalcel too at this point. (I've looksmaxed, statusmaxed and moneymaxxed) but still feel like an incel on the inside. (and for now, am an incel.)

The problem is It's FUCKING TOUGH to change your mental outlook. bitches on reddit and other cuck sites will tell you that "you just have to be confidence bro" but that's fucking hard when you've been an invisible loser.

Here's the only way to do it. you have to change feedback loops. If you've been ignored by people all your life (me) you have to go out and get positive feedback. Most incel traits are due to negative feedback or no feedback. You have to force that shit..

so like, if you grow up and you're fucking fat and you lose weight, inside you will still feel like a fat person. you need to get used to people calling you fit and praising you for doing fit stuff until your brain starts to accept it.

funnily enough this is literally girl tier advice because girls just accept whatever they're told uncritically in a way guys don't.

but the reason chad is confident is because his whole life he's given a halo and can do no wrong. if you're a mentalcel, you're the opposite and you have to build your own halo.

"charisma" and "social likeability" are bullshit terms. just check out some of the chadfish posts here; you can have the shittest personality and if you have a halo, people will respond positively.

build the halo, maxx yourself it's the only way to ascend fucking seriously

Great explanation wrote in better terms, same as I've said

As an oldcel mentalcel i can safely say the answer is yes it is.

The only thing that works and even that in limited way is drugs.

holy fuck I thought I was the only one. this shit hit right on the money.
no matter how much I research or study or practice in my head, when the eventual moment of socialization comes, I just freeze up, blank out, and revert to the autist I am and always will be.
:feelsrope:
 
Most mentalcels are magically "cured" when a foid force their way into their (unknowingly) Chadhood. I've seen countless stories of guys who lost their kisslessness or virginity just because some foids forced interactions with them, the "shy" kids, just to become their girlfriends later on. Lookism is a thing since young ages.

If you are old enough and foids never did that to you, I'm sorry but you're hardly just a mentalcel.

I personally think that personality is shaped with experience.

On TV they always tell the character "just be yourself"

In real life people tell me "Fake it till you make it" "you need to make a lot of changes" "try to be more like this other person"

It's not the worst idea in the world to try to emulate traits of successful people
