What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I didn't know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.

I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:

How do you handle family members who ask for handouts?

I loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.

I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.

How would you feel if your girlfriend had dick pics on her phone?

I didn't have a social smile and I sometimes had exagerated facial expresions or just expressionless.

I was under sensitive to bowel and bladder feelings but other Interoceptive feelings felt just too much.

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

I copied people from TV shows or films, their way of walk, talk and personality.

I had a fantasy world, I was always there and that was the best place to be, when I was anxious I went there and zone out.

I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.

I always had a justice sense, if there was no equality or justice I would get very upset about that.

I used to bite my fingers and hands to self regulate. I sucked my thumb sometimes too.

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.

I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.

I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.

These are my resumed signs of autism when I was a child. Most of them got overlooked because the only thing about autism my parents and grandparents knew was about very severe cases of autism. Another factor is that I was born female (I'm trans) and that I masked from a young age.

I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.

I woke up and threw all my toys away from my crib and start crying.

I had trouble to be fed. I ate slower and it was difficult for me to stop drinking from the bottle or breast. I also had trouble eating solid food.

I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.
