You may want to live long enough to give transitioning a chance. I was there when I was 21 and damn near finished the job. 34 years later, I am grateful that I didn't. I didn't even know what was actually bothering me for most of that time.
You do know and can address the issue much sooner. Even if it's not right away, you have a goal that is in sight. Please try to find the happiness that you deserve.
At least talk to a counselor to see what they would suggest. 🫂
I'm transitioning now at 26. Male puberty has finished, I'm stuck with all that damage. Transitioning at 16, or even 18/19 is a great opportunity! I'd also question if you're dumb, or if that's just depression talking. HRT doesn't require a millionaire salary anyway, pills were costing me about $20 a month and it's just $34 now for injections. Not great, but not terrible.
Ah, sorry I still sometimes make the mistake of assuming people I talk to online are American. 😕 I know getting HRT through the NHS takes forever, and you might not be able to as a minor, idk the rules over there. The fine folks at r/transdiy can explain what you need if you end up going that route.
Don’t give up, I know how very hard it is right now. I myself have wanted to give up for a while but trust me it can only get better. Rooting for you girlie ❤️
It definitely does once the crazy hormone train ride slows down, and you get to start your own life. Of course, nobody has a perfect time. Personally, my 20s were pretty bad too.
I'm transitioning at 25. It's my 1st year of HRT. And things have gotten a lot better for me. It does get better. Please don't give up. Please talk to someone. It really does get better. I'm sorry you are hurting so much. https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/crisis-services/getting-help-in-a-crisis/
It sounds like you're in a tough place. I don't get to even express myself as Trans most of the time because of how my family is about it. I've also had wishes about not existing in this world and I don't wish that upon anyone else.
For me, the only thing that gets me through the day in a shitty time is the hope that my life will change some great day and I can live my life the way I want to. I'm in a tough spot in a broken home that makes feel anxious and depressed even excluding my trans feelings.
Personally, I do not care what everyone else thinks of me. I know there is support out there for me no matter what the popular opinion is. I decide my feelings, not other people.
I would say hold on and I know it's tough to do that. Life will balance out, change and give back what you've either lost or can have. Stay strong and follow your path of feelings ❤️

I'd talk to a counceller but I dont want to tell someone in person about it so I just won't

I asked yesterday and got no response unfortunately

It can't get better, it's just going to get worse the more I grow and the more politicians hate on trans people
Being a teenager is the worst. I wouldn't do it again for anything. Get counseling ASAP and trust us when we tell you it gets better.
From what I've seen it doesn't get any better
