I'm usually in between. I'd be observant if not for the social anxiety... I'd always have been observant if not for the social anxiety (walking down the street became pure torture) and understimulation/sensory deprivation that caused me to daydream. Thankfully the citalopram is taking away most of the social anxiety, yay!

I am generally very observant unless highly stressed.
I tend to get overstimulated very easily though if there is a lot of noise etc which makes it harder for me to spot things, but I am generally always looking around everywhere, and I am observant enough I spotted the statues at the top of some of the buildings on the South Bank of London on Sunday.

Perhaps Ana has a filing cabinet full of folders, one for each wp member, full of all the information we give out in reply to her questions... :P

I always notice any thing different where nobody else seems to. unless it has to do with people. At work I as the first to notice the new water coolers in our warehouse. I cant beleie nobody else noticed, evern a few days later after they were installed perhapse cause this place is enourmous. It took 1 person 4 days to realize it and he walked 30' by it everyday multiple times.

I notice plenty others dont.

Yes I'm very observant I ought to find a career that could take use of it! Like forensic science sadly popular TV programmes such as CSI have flooded the market there are too many forensic students!

50/50... I notice the unusual things, totally overlook the "common" things.

I don't notice things, at least visual things. In fact, I scored in the 5th percentile on observation- my lowest score. But then again, I have NLD, not AS.
