That is an interesting observation. Would you say schizophrenia and autism are similar neurodivergences with some overlap? Changing identity used to be a defining characteristic of schizophrenics. Now being transgender is the new schizophrenia with a new name. People uncomfortable with themselves find an escape in many ways. Wanting to avoid puberty is a common desire for those on the autistic spectrum. My brother is just recovering from life threatening neuroleptic syndrome caused by medication for schizophrenia. I think he is really on the autistic spectrum and for the past thirty years has been a “Guinea pig” as doctors tried to make him conform. I love him the way he was, unmedicated. It is evil the way psychiatrists feel pressured to medicate (in case he is dangerous unmedicated). My brother is a very gentle soul.
He went through puberty before transgenderism was popularised. In those days people such as him were put in psychiatric hospitals and heavily medicated. Now they are given cross sex hormones. I wonder which is worse. We live in a less than perfect world.
