What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

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.

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

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