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

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

It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.

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

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

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

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.
