Desperate need of advice for what I should do as I can't live like this for much longer: I have been experiencing severe gender dysphoria as of recently and nearly everyday I get worse and worse but I'm too scared of the consequences of doing so

Hello, I'm a 17M who is suffering from severe gender dysphoria who lives in a very conservative family. As of recently, I have been experiencing depression like symptoms that I mask as I don't want anyone knowing what I'm going through. When I look in the mirror, all I see is a person wantinf to be a woman but can't due to my family being comprised of bigots and idiots. Whenever I brought up the topic of transgender individuals to my family, they see them as mentally ill and state that its a phase, same goes with my siblings. Can anyone give me advice because I'm currently in hell and I don't what to do anymore.
