That means they won't reject you when the time comes.
I'm nearly 63 and one thing I've learned about life is that we can't always have everything we want immediately. Sometimes we just have to be patient and make something a goal for the future. If you can't start the treatment for a few years you could concentrate on what you can do in your life at this moment.
Have you thought about a career? If so, you can make education an immediate goal. You can chat to fellow atheists onlne and get advice from atheists living in areas where most people are very religious. There are other atheists of your age in a similar situation to yourself where being a 16 year old still living at home is concerned. You can support each other.
