Eye contact

Roswell

I wonder if I have this, as the traits sound familiar in many cases.

  • Difficulty concentrating in visually busy environments, especially if noisy too. - Yes!
  • Gets lost, anxious or distressed in visually complex places such as crowded places, supermarket, or busy swimming pool, or cinema. -Indeed.
  • Reacts angrily when distracted from a task. - Can do.
  • Lack of response to faces or facial expressions. - I've noticed people can take offence that I'm slow to react to their facial expressions.
  • Eye movements not made independently of head movements, or not very regular and “smooth”. -Moving my eyes seems to tire me out. I often sense the eye contact I make to others is too blunt for their taste, perhaps because I'm not able to move eyes "smoothly".
