What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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.

Can you share something that captivates you, whether it's an idea, a discovery, or an invention?

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

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

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.

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 wasn't unable to get non verbal communication and non literal communication too.
