Sorry, it's really funny to me that we're watching your Star Trek obsession unfold. It's a great franchise. I love it, and ur artwork is great!
THANKS lmao it was inevitable……… i do think its funny that you say obsession though ive posted it Twice here like. you are not wrong but i think i managed to spare most of you by relegating my Thoughts to my close friends story

positivity for trans saihara
its under the readmore
im going to preface this by saying i dont think you mentioned whether youre ftm or mtf, so ill include things for both!! 
dysphoria, first of all, is an absolute nightmare -- im so sorry if thats what youre going through right now. and sometimes its an ongoing struggle!! an incessant hum in the back of your mind that somethings just not quite right. 
and i can assure you now, it is. everythings okay.
your body may not look or feel the way you want it to, your voice may not sound ideal, your clothes, hair, or name may not match up as youd like, but that doesnt mean youre not you. you know who you are, saihara!! no matter what, you know your gender and you know your identity, so plant some roots and stick yourself there!! and if youre actually not sure of you are, thats okay too. it takes time -- and you never have to slap a label on yourself to know who you are, anyway. whether you know or not, youre valid, youre you, and nothing can change that, whether you “pass” or not.
ps: “passing” is just an obstruction to determine the validity of anothers gender, when thats not how anything works at all!! again, you are valid no matter how you look, sound, or function!! 
aa speaking of, maybe youre facing transphobia?? hearing gross things, whether directed at you specifically or not, is terrible. im so so sorry. you dont deserve that. maybe you came out to your family/friends and theyre not supportive, or youre out at school/work/etc and its less than accepting. you deserve better, and i wish we lived in a world where none of this happened; well be there someday, but people like you and me have to pave the path for the people to come. so stay strong, okay?? youre doing so well -- keep at it. 
you cant change anyones mind, cant magically have them understand and accept you, and thats one of the hardest parts of coming out. its waiting and hoping theyll come around, or knowing they never will and distancing yourself. ive had to break off relationships because the other was so closed-minded and it was destroying my confidence and sense of self: if youre facing something like this and you have the chance to break away, please do. your health and safety are top priority, regardless of how close you are, how long youve known each other, or how youre related. its okay. youre okay. youll find people who love and accept you for you.
things may not be perfect now, but there are things to help!! ive listed a few resources below for common ftm and mtf struggles!! aaa i dont personally know what being mtf is like, so if thats you and its not helpful i sincerely apologize!! here it is:
ftm:
if youre feeling dysphoric about your voice, here are some exercises to make it deeper
if youre feeling dysphoric about your genitalia, you can try packing!! heres a tutorial for making your own packer. there are also strap ons, and some you can even use the restroom through!! tho i recommend doing your own research to find what works for you.
if youre feeling dysphoric about your chest, here are some of the best binders ever; i highly recommend their binders over anyone elses, both for reputation, price, and safety.
mtf
if youre feeling dysphoric about your voice, here are some exercises to make it higher
heres a tutorial on tucking for hiding your genitalia!!
and if you want to wear it, heres a general overview of make up, brushes, and terminology. its a lot of fun and can really feminize your face if youre worried about that!! 
and this is a mastlerist with a long of things for both!! some of the links are broken tho aa
and if you need anything else, theres this!! its the inbox to my main hehe☆ youre never alone, saihara, so feel free to hmu at any time. got your back, and hope it gets easier soon!! your aesthetic will be up as soon as this posts.
-mod ko♥
