Weren't these kids all "otherkin" and "vampires" not long ago?

Some of them still are. I've also seen a ton of these TQ+ disclose their (sometimes self-diagnosed) mental illnesses in their social media bios.

Abigail Shrier's non-fiction book IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE, about the rise of girls suddenly believing that they are transgender, talks about how a lot of the non-gay kids being sucked into the transgender fad have mental illnesses (is that what it's called now?) or conditions like autism and ADHD.

Then IIRC there was a study done of LGBTQ + US university students that also found the same.
