What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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.
