The main suspect is possibly autistic and is targeted by the police pretty much only because of this. It is also implied that his adoptive mother whipped him.

No but there is a character who is possibly a closeted trans woman who is referred to as male throughout. We don't have enough information to know for sure.

Not explicit but a major character is coded autistic and is non verbal. The main character also worries that his unborn child will be disabled though the condition is not specified.

Maybe not exactly gaslighted but the main character experiences things that other characters later deny. It's unclear how much of it happened.

The main character is possibly experiencing psychotic breaks, and kills someone. A man coded autistic or possibly severely traumatised is possibly the murderer in the story though it's never made clear.
