Having a neurology that is faster, more complex, or more sensitive can present a person with so much information about his environment that processing it all can take time. In a social setting where everyone else is running on "automatic pilot", it can make one stand out in a noticeable way.
Some people mask, some use humor as a cloaking device, still others remain silent and on the fringe.
Being on the fringe is not all bad, it is often where you can meet others with whom a more compatible interaction can be found.
