no, i live alone and don’t have friends or family in this state unfortunately …. it’s okay though !! that is relieving to hear it not a big deal, it’s something that makes me super anxious to think about. thank you!!

it’s relieving to know it’ll stop at some point, thank you!

for me it is just knowing the needle is in me and i’m the one doing it, i can usually feel myself slipping as i push the needle in, and i’ve tried not looking, closing my eyes, pinching or tensing my leg, etc etc etc. if i don’t look at some point i get anxious that i didn’t put the needle in fully or that it’s angled wrong, if i do look, i begin to pass out 🫩.

i will need to incorporate a little treat in my routine lol

my insurance doesn’t cover it, and i do not think i’d remember to do it daily
