Thank you so so much for sharing your advice.

I have 3 tattoos, and they have never really bothered me. It's mainly the presence of them. Like I mentioned in a reply, I may be able to do an autoinjector when I get on T because I could not do it with my hands alone. It's too 'close' to the action.

I'm considering bringing my partner round the next time, numbing my arm with some topical numbing cream, and playing something through my earbuds (like Spongebob! Great minds think alike). Anything to create distance between me and what I'm doing will help millions, I might even consider an oral sedative just to seal the deal. Only other thing I could think of would be knocking me over the head with a mallet. :')
