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 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
