What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

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

I am skinny, I have been doing 100 pushups a day for more than a month and am seeing very few results, everything is so unfair, I workout more than anyone I know and am still skinny, why cant I build muscle?

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

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

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.

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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