I am totally fine, thanks. But I absolutely do feel targeted, and it makes me sad for the other lesbians and bisexuals struggling with mental illness who are targeted. It seems there is a heavy correlation between female autism and ftm transitioners. In my mind it seems like trans is to female autism what self-harm is to BPD.

If you don't mind me asking, what have other people done that you've found helpful during your recovery? I have a female friend on the spectrum who trusts me, who has confided that she is questioning her gender, and am walking the razor-thin line of nudging her away from the trans while not outing myself as an evil angry radfem.

(And please don't feel pressured to respond! If it's too much to ask, or if you don't think your experience was comparable enough to give advice on this, I understand.)
