I find that when I'm in the middle of an intense coding session I become abrasive and distracted from others' perspective. If you interrupt me when I'm working on a problem, I will lose it! In several senses. I find that I can't work when there is music playing - generally when I start working I have music quite loud but as I get more immersed in the problem it becomes quieter and quieter until I mute it completely.

On the other hand I'm comfortable in social situations so long as I have some time for that mental intensity to dissipate. I just need a buffer to switch modes.
