The people are all drawn as anthropomorphic rabbits, so any time something bad happens to someone, it’s happening to a rabbit. It’s obvious that the drawings are a stylistic choice, not meant to indicate real rabbits

One of the protagonist's friends early on are very mean and pushy, but I'm unsure if anything she does could really be considered gaslighting.

There's some ableist things said and done by the protagonist's peers, but most of it is more of a lack of understanding rather than trying to be mean. People baby her, do unnecessary things as an attempt to help her, and say mean and obnoxious things.

There are some scenes where you see the protagonist in states of undress as a child, but there’s no detailed anatomy. Kind of like a doll

Pages 42-43: with one kind of hearing aid the author uses in childhood, she can hear her teacher wherever she is in the building as long as the latter carries a special microphone. She forgets to remove the microphone in the bathroom, so the author can hear everything
