What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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.

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

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 loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.

I had trouble sharing objects and food, normally someone had to tell me to give them something. I sometimes didn't want people to have my objects to the point of meltdowns.

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

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

Anything could make me laugh to the point of annoying other people.

Have you ever had a bad gut feeling about someone and it was right?

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.

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