Normal in people terms is something evidenced by more than 50% of the population.
Hence depression is actually normal as more than 50% of us will suffer from it at one time or another. |

the people who know me describe me as 'quirky', 'an individual' or 'mysterious' because I dress how I want, don't follow fashion and have my own views and opinions and don't let people in to know me easily.
Also when I enter a room people say they are drawn to my presence.
So I guess I am considered not normal! |

Usual is another word for normal. Just means what is usual, and depends on the context you use it as to what it means. Both are very vague words unless context is applied and better words could be used in their place, such as common, typical or ordinary.
When it comes to standard (another word for normal) then we are talking something slightly different here. Standard means something to attain to, a particular manner that 'should be'. Although no-one ever uses the word to insult others and prefer to use a more vague term of normal instead, which literally means nothing because of it's vagueness.

"Inspired by a profile on a social media site, can anyone explain to me what "normal" is?"
Normal is different to different people your normal and my normal will be very different to the Arch Bishop of Canterbury's normal. |

Statistically, normal as in normally distributed data, means that 68% of the values lie within 1 standard deviation, 95% within 2 standard deviations and 99.7% within 3 standard deviations, from the mean.
Thing is, I still can't tell, as I have loads of deviations and none of them are standard |
