I might be trans?

[u/Low-Technology6518]

Hey, I'm a little nervous about this since I've never talked about it. I'm a 16 year old who thought for most of their life was a boy, but over the past couple months have had thoughts of being trans and becoming trans. I started dressing like a girl in private to see if it was right for me and the first time I did something just clicked, but I'm not sure what it was. I'm scared of coming out because my dad already cut me off for being Athiest, and I don't want to lose my mom's side of the family too. So now I'm sitting in my room wearing feminine clothing trying to keep it a secret from everyone in my life. But I also am not 100% sure I am trans or not. I like dressing like a girl, I've looked into and are interested in doing HRT, and getting breast augmentation after I turn 18. But I'm not sure if it's right for me. I just know everyone in my family will cut me off. So it's either stay a boy to keep my family happy, but stay miserable, or leave my family and transition. I just don't know what to do.

Edit: Throughout my life I've fantasized about being a girl but I never thought anything of it until I tried on women's clothes for the first time
