Depends on how you see pain
Like, it doesn’t feel like someone stabbed me, but it feels like a fog of torturous discomfort going through my body.
Keep in mind I might not be the best source for dysphoria. I don’t feel it TOO much, but when it decides to hit, OOOH IT HITS HARD.

Whenever something gets like 4-5 inches or closer to my chest (I’m mtf), it feels like what you’d expect it to feel like if someone chopped off someone’s breasts, it’s extremely painful, the worst part is I have mildly transphobic parents so if I tell them they will just tell me I’m not alone and I just need to work through it and it’ll get better, they don’t believe in any sort of hormone therapy or anything, they think it’s wrong

That’s stupid. “Just work through it, it’ll get better.”
So they’re neither acknowledging your pain nor helping you with it?
Parents are supposed to raise you and help you through things that hurt (such as dysphoria). I can understand a parent wanting to do more research about hormone therapy, maybe talk to their child about waiting a week or month to make sure this is a permanent decision, but just “not believing in it”? BRUH! Do more research! If the child wants it, is sure, and it’s safe, it’s really their decision at the end, if they’re making an informed decision.

If hormone therapy can give you breasts, then I’m def gonna want that. (I’m under 18 so I can’t get the surgeries yet)

And if your parents don’t support you, remember this:

I mean I get cramps and headache from stress because of dysphoria but maybe that's just me?

For me yes, but I don’t think it’s supposed to cause pain, most times I feel pain from it, it’s because something touched something that I get a lot of dysphoria from
