Am I fooling myself?

Hello, I am Troy, and I am 17 and live in semi-rural Western Australia.

For about nearly two weeks, I have been questioning myself if I am trans and have been feeling rather confused about my identity inside and all. I feel some sort of strong "longing" to be the opposite gender version of myself I see in my head, and that I could potentially be happier as it. Another thing I feel is a distaste of my male body, not an extreme hate, but a dislike, as it does not exactly suit how I feel inside. I have always preferred to grow my hair out, which I find fun in styling it sometimes. I have felt this previously mentioned longing over moments in my life, first starting in my earlier years, with a simple thought or two. However, my brain has been stressfully doubtful too, feeling that I have been fooling myself into believing this, though, I have felt I would betray myself if I went along with that conclusion. Lastly, since thinking this over, I have recently spoken to my school's psychologist, to which he had recommended me to look online for some resources, and I found this website, which is a good start. :)

But, yeah, I appreciate the thoughts on my situation here, and thanks. :) ((Sorry if this was a bit clustery))
