What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.

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 copied people from TV shows or films, their way of walk, talk and personality.

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

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.

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 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 loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.

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

How do I know if I am a bitch? I try to be a nice person but people often jokingly call me a bitch. My family calls me a bitch sometimes too.

I didn't have a social smile and I sometimes had exagerated facial expresions or just expressionless.

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

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 always so tired and I don't eat enough?

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.

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.

I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.

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

I have received a fake legal notice, with unreachable phone number and unidentified address and fake lawyer enrollment number. The notice has caused my family severe stress. I know the person who might have done this illegal act. What should I do?

I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.

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.
