My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.
SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)
I wasn't unable to get non verbal communication and non literal communication too.
Are there many people here who suffer from schizophrenia?
It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.
I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.
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.
What are some prime examples of gibberish from the bible?
I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.
Anything could make me laugh to the point of annoying other people.
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.
What does the Bible say about the Antichrist? How will we know when he arrives on the scene?
I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.
I used to bite my fingers and hands to self regulate. I sucked my thumb sometimes too.
I was under sensitive to bowel and bladder feelings but other Interoceptive feelings felt just too much.
Why is my elder sister so mean?
I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.
I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.
SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)
I didn't have a social smile and I sometimes had exagerated facial expresions or just expressionless.
I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.
I loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.
Have you been with a stranger yet?
I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.
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 will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:
I didn't know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.
I always had a justice sense, if there was no equality or justice I would get very upset about that.
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.
Why am I dreaming of people I've never seen before?
I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.
I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.
I loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.
I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.
I woke up and threw all my toys away from my crib and start crying.
I copied people from TV shows or films, their way of walk, talk and personality.
How come Jesus died on Friday and rose on Sunday? That's not 3 days and three nights.
I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.
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.
