We seem to be at cross purposes - I'm talking about fandom's reaction to otherkin, while you're talking about your own personal choices and experiences. I'm not volunteering to be anyone's therapist, just throwing theories out there about whether fandom's behaviour is currently helpful or not.

I really doubt there's any way for fandom to be helpful to them; you can only help someone with a mental illness if they personally want to get better. And the majority of otherkin/fictionkin I've run into don't. Either they're not really otherkin at heart and participate in it as a harmless hobby, or they're perfectly content being delusional and abusive. I think it's far healthier for fandom to avoid the daylights out of these people. There's way less chance of anybody getting hurt that way.
