Yes! My sister always accuses me of 'claiming to see details' but missing something she finds obvious.
I've grown tired already of telling her that I missed that one thing BECAUSE I was processing 3,647 other things she didn't notice.
What my brain finds important differs from what her brain finds important. Imagine that.
And YES! on the sensory input being different from person to person. It can be different for me from day to day, too.

@barefootrambling@autistics.life @atarifrosch@fedifreu.de @autistics@fedigroups.social I've read that we can miss big picture items because of our focus on individual pieces. I agree with the statements above on sensitivities, etc and the correlation with how balanced or stimulated we may be before encountering them affecting our reaction to them. The cup half full analogy. I am still in a process of discovering / reflecting on sensitivities sot his conversation and everyones input is very helpful.
