What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
