What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

I am still studying engineering. I feel worried being an average student. Can I get a good job in placement, buy a house, and a car? I don't know why I feel this.

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.

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 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

In Italy, how do people greet each other when they meet for the first time (e.g., on the street)? What's a good response to that greeting if you're not from Italy or don't speak Italian fluently yet?

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

What makes someone feel "rich enough" in different societies?

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

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

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