What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

What is the irony of life according to you?

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

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

How do you confront your own family for not inviting you or leaving you out of things?

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

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 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.

Have you ever really seen aliens or UFOs by yourself? Can you share your experience?

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

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

I took a video of my serve (60 FPS) and it took 0.4 seconds from my racket to the service line. How fast would you say my serve was?

I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with 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 had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.

How good do you sing and how do you know this?

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

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

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

What kind of pleasure do gay men get from being bottom? The idea is very appealing to me but in practice it's quite painful.

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

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

Why do boobs of some girls bounce when they walk?

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

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

Kuorans, what are some things unique to your country?

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

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

What is truer than that which is true?

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

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

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

What makes you different?

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

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

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