What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
