What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

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

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

I saw a post on X which says "control your lust & you'll understand how boring 90% of women are." What do you think about it? Do you agree or disagree? Why?

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

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

Why can't I lose weight?

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

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

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

What if you were the only and last person left on Earth. How will you survive and what would you do with your life?

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

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

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

Why do Democrats keep calling Patriots/President Trump supporters "sore losers"? Do they purposefully ignore the massive fraud that took place, or genuinely think that there was zero fraud?

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

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

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

I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

Have you ever witnessed political correctness harm someone?

I was very obsessed with angry birds, I played angry birds, I had ab toys, I watched ab in TV and I was so obsessed with that.

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

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

What is the best phrase that sums up Tim Burton's Netflix Wednesday series cast? What is your unedited opinion about it?

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

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

How would you feel if your friend confided in you that she is cheating on her husband, knowing that he loves her deeply? What emotional and ethical considerations would you grapple with in response to her revelation?

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

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

What contributed to the popularity of The Beatles' song 'Yesterday'? Was it due to its simplicity, lyrics, or other factors?

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

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

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

I'm a 28-year-old guy who has never been in a relationship, nor can I seem to find someone who wants to be in one with me. Why do I feel like a freak?
