SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
