    Why just a screenshot?

    I Googled around and what the screenshot cut off was she was groomed at 15, and most of her symptoms that led to a diagnosis were just emotional avoidance, which would line up with being abused as a child and the depression that’s also mentioned…

    Author seems to be a piece of shit tho, she used to work for Daily Caller. And still seems to argue for actual detransituoning. So like… How/why are people surprised? This is literally her playbook…

    But it seems she was diagnosed at 30 around 2019, whether or not that was a correct diagnosis, misdiagnosis is something that does happen.

    Especially for adults who get checked for autism after never having any suspicions until they got on tiktok.

    There’s a lot of people who want to have a diagnosis, and even unintentionally will try to trick medical professionals. A grifter like her, she almost certainly doesn’t really have autism, and just did it for attention or an excuse for being shitty.

    This is nothing new in psychology
