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.

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

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

Why do Trump supporters believe Trump should deport the immigrants? These people you call "illegal immigrants" have lived here for many years, they have houses, jobs, how can you think they will just go back to their country, where they have nothing?

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

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

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

What was the worst decision you ever did?

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

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

Who is the most annoying character in the Office?

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 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 vibrated my dogs shock collar while it was eating my other dog’s food and now it won’t eat. How do I fix this problem?

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

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

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

How can the democrats say Mr. Trump is bad when he is already fixing this country again and he's not even president yet?

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

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 know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.

What thing happened to you as a child that you haven’t let go of to this day?

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

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

Everyone says the pet population is out of control. Everyone says you MUST spay or neuter your pets. No one wants to talk about how its almost $1,000 to spay or neuter a pet. Why is it so expensive if its so necessary? Animal shelters do it for free.

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

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

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.

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

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

How do I become mentally strong?

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

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

What shouldn't you Google?

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

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

What happened to everybody's thick skin? It used to be that people really didn't get offended, now however, everybody gets offended by the least little thing.
