What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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.

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.

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

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

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 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.

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

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

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

Why do siblings (or other close relatives) stop visiting each other as they grow older? Why does this happen with so many people nowadays?

I was under sensitive to bowel and bladder feelings but other Interoceptive feelings felt just too much.

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