HRT Struggles, needles, - 

I’ve been staring at this for way too long, struggling to work up the courage to give myself my weekly dose.

I feel weak and I hate it so much. It doesn’t hurt. I’ve only hit a vein once. And yet it’s suddenly this terrifying thing and I want to scream and cry and just be a girl, damnit.

It gets a bit easier over time. You doing thighs or glutes? I find thighs a bit less nervous, myself.

@faynefluff @bluepupboi thighs! Swapping between left and right, though thinking I should just stick to the right since I’m better with that side.

Should keep the swapping going! Just make sure that you're going further out, if it's hurting a ton you might be going into the quad proper and it's owchie.
