I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:
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 loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.
