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

Everyone suddenly wants selective autism.

Non American here, can i haz context?
