What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

What's an underrated/unknown novel or series that you think deserves more attention?

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

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

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.

Why does my iPhone keep on saying I can’t upload photos to iCloud and say it doesn't have enough iCloud storage when it still has space?

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

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

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

What are the challenges associated with the birth narratives of Jesus?

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

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

What do men like to be given for their birthday?

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

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

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.

What do you think of the Black history lessons in the PBS documentary about jazz pianist-singer Hazel Scott?

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

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

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

Does believing in God and Satan cause schizophrenia?

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

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 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.

Why do I feel so down and not happy anymore? I also feel really tired and non-motivated. Is that normal for someone to feel that way?

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.

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

I refuse to date any women that are social media influencers, content creators, TikTok celebrities, and use Only fans. Would this be seen as normal, or would I be going too far? Why?

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

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

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 you view men and women who cheat?

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

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

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

What is your favourite true story to tell at a party?

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

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

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

Why do some people dislike rap and hip hop music despite there being poor quality music in every genre?
