What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

Islam is definitely a very anti-LGBTQ religion, so why don't liberals ever stage pro-LGBTQ demonstrations at mosques or at the consulates/embassies of Muslim countries?

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

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.

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.

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

Why do people say African Americans act the way they do because they're poor, when the ones with money act the same?

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

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

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

I see ugly guys dating gorgeous, "hot" women all the time. I, too, am not very attractive but I'm not doing well with the ladies. What's their secret?

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

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

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

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

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.

Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support. I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized. he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that. he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened. he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence. i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction. after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly. things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it. we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe … our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far? this has upset me so much its hard to even function.

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

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

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

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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