how

 

[irlesper]

yes there is a chance
its something called a growth plateau where your growth plates remain open while not seeing any height growth
anecdotes report either no growth after the plateau or some say they haven't grown for a year and a half and experience cms of growth
very case dependent, hope you are the latter

your plates are unlikely to close at 15.5 although definitely possible. you have about 3cm of natural growth left in your genetic-wise in your height projection. so they're likely still open imo. but who knows they could be closed although less likely. if you wanna be 100% just check it.

but why im not growing

use your brain. based on what you know about height and puberty and also what other people said in here, you can easily understand.

There is genuinely no way to know without checking your bone age (typically a hand and wrist X-ray).
If you want some hope fuel, I would say at 15 years old, your chances are relatively high, but if it's something you feel the need to confirm, fake an injury on your left wrist

I went through something similar to you where my height growth drastically slowed down.. However not nearly as bad as you. I think your environment just stunted you (sleep, nutrition, stress, etc) and there is a chance you can still trigger a catch up spurt, especially with polypharmacy. PM me.
