Thorazine used to be used for every head malady under the sun back in the day, it would probably work for gender dysphoria now. Good old fashioned anti-dopaminergic drugs. Also available in syrup and injectable form for the uncooperative troon.
 
Read up on Body Dysmorphic Disorder which is a very similar delusion. It's an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. The problem is with your brain, not your body.

You keep saying 'I'm ugly.' In your mind male=ugly, female=beautiful. You are obsessed with an idealized image of female beauty that in itself is delusional. There are plenty of women who are 1-3/10 who most people would not describe as beautiful, they are still women. You are not and never will be.

The problem is in your brain, not your body. If you take permanently medically detrimental cross-sex hormones or get permanently mutilating plastic surgery in service of your mental disorder you will still have a mental disorder plus new traumas to permanently deal with.

Find a psychiatrist and be very firm about explaining to them you want your mental disorder treated as an Obsessive Compulsive/Anxiety Disorder and not a special snowflake 'I was born in the wrong body' disorder. You have to find a psychiatrist who will not cater to your delusions as this will only make them worse and more predominant. If they aren't willing to do that leave and find a new one, maybe ask for a referral to someone who specializes OCD/Anxiety disorders.

but im left here, a grown man who is so repulsed by his own body he cant function

Could you elaborate what you mean when you say you 'cant function' your own body?

I've read that lithium can help with obsessional GD (skoptic syndrome). Like, if you are considering self-castration, lithium will help put a stop to those specific thoughts.
 
Echoing the previous poster - could you go into more detail on what you feel your body should look like, bit by bit, and what is wrong with it now in your view in its function or fit?

I am not being facetious, I have a hard time grasping it because the only consideration I ever give my body is whether it is fit, washed/groomed and healthy. That's where it begins and ends.

If I woke up a woman tomorrow, it would be irritating but overall irrelevant - I'd just have to emphasize different areas more during weightlifting because they need more strengthening in a female body (and buy one of them silicone hoohah cups).
Essentially I can't imagine what it feels like having a dysphoric body, because I can't even grasp a phoric body I guess lol.

Is your body currently fit, healthy and washed/groomed (even if it's the wrong one to your brain)?

Thorazine, from what I've read, can fuck your brain up pretty badly unlike the atypicals. And I mean in some pretty shitty ways.

Also stop consuming anime. I stopped because there hasn't been a series that's appealed to me since S3 of BNHA.
 
Men come in all shapes and sizes physically, and countless varieties mentally, so what specifically makes you hate your version? Obviously there is a sharp break from how you feel and what you see, but what does that mean? Do you just mean you've always felt like a woman?

Just saying you hate your body isn't specific enough to offer advice on how to deal with that. Like, if I got fat I would probably hate it enough to do something about it. I'd eat better and exercise more. But clearly this is something much deeper , however, without understand specifics it's going to be hard for anyone to give real advice.

I hope you at least realize, self-flagellating and ripping yourself apart are not the answer to your pain. Why be so hard on yourself? It changes nothing. Maybe you are trans. That’s not the end of the world. You can make it work. You may not be a natal woman, sure. But you could also never be anyone other than who you are…on all levels. Not just being trans, but the same with your personality, nature, habits, psyche, etc…you are who you are for a reason. You weren’t born trans on accident. If I were you, I’d focus less on “curing” myself. I would focus more on “what makes me truly happy?” And if referring to myself as a woman (despite being a biological male) made me happy, I’d stay in my own little lane and focus on that, as well as hobbies and other things that bring me wholesome joy. I’d try to remind myself that I’m not my pain or my hurt. I would also do these away from the opinions of others, because you seems to carry a great deal of shame that isn’t even yours to carry, when it comes to how trans people are perceived. You don’t have to always understand your pain. If you can, try to say at least 1 kind about yourself today, then carry it into tommorow. Keep building on it until by the end of the week, you’ve at least said 7 positive, lovely things about yourself. That’s not nothing.

i dont wanna get my dick cut off. i dont know what that makes me but i dont want that particular surgery. I hate my height, shoulders, voice, body hair, veins etc. i used to ignore it and fill my time and dissasociate, but for the past two years i havent been able to do it . it might be a nervous breakdown or something. anxiety attack since the second i wake up. ignoring mirrors etc. the whole thing. so when i say i cant function means that every tiny task makes me want to kms lol. its rlly intense
