What are the signs of mild autism in a child?
Last Updated: 28.06.2025 04:13

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.
I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.
I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.

I loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.
I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.
I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.
I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.
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 interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

Anything could make me laugh to the point of annoying other people.
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 will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:
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.
I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.
I loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.
