What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

Why do people hate on Serena (anime character)? What did she ever do to anyone except be a good friend to Ash Ketchum and an awesome trainer herself?

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

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

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

When did bestiality first occur to you and how did it happen the first time? Was it a deliberate decision or it just happened and you allowed it?

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

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

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.

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

What would you do if you found out that someone had broken into your home while you were sleeping?

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

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

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 had sex with your female cousin? How did it start?

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

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

How do you deal with neighbors who are always telling you what to do?

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

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)

What is your secret to glowing skin?

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

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 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.

How do individuals become targeted individuals? Is it solely due to experiencing stalking or harassment, or are there other factors involved?

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

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

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

What is the most interesting question you can ask to get to know someone?

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

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

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

Can you name an example of bad parenting?

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

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