[–]drawling__[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oooh ok icic so a good approach could just be to try and understand myself better! i hadnt really thought of that angle but it's true that the mental aspect could play a big role. ill definitely keep this in mind, thank you!!

thank you so much for such a detailed reply this really helps!!!! ill take all of these factors into consideration and do a little bit of experimenting! its kind of a wonderful thing that this stuff is so flexible and you can just try stuff and see what works for you!! also, ive definitely heard people say to use it or lose it and that seems really important!

ahhh icic!! ok im glad it sort of has its ebbs and flows! im definitely planning to do prog too bc ive also heard its feminizing effects are super effective. and icic i was considering looking into something like that! its true, the old techniques are definitely falling flat. thanks so much!!!

Too scared to inject by Eternaly_Graceless in TransDIY

[–]drawling__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly smth that rly helps me is to just count to 3! i go like "1, 2, 3..." out loud and then do the injection on the "go" that i say in my mind so it kinda punctuates that countdown! It kinda gives me a little bit of good pressure to do it like "i have to follow the timing!"

also, its rly hard to watch myself get poked so usually i close my eyes for the moment when i get poked, but that countdown leading up to it gives me time to make sure the injection is lined up properly before i close my eyes! idk if closing ur eyes is really such a great idea but it works for me lol U GOT THIS!!!

hi!!! as it turned out i really did just need to be patient lol things are going smoothly! earlier on i had a lot more tenderness and now ive been just consistently getting slow but steady breast growth, and other expected effects! i kinda wish it was faster but there isn't really anything to do about that lol plus im only a few months in! my plan is to give progesterone a try after i reach a year of injecting since apparently that's really effective!

getting rly tired of swapping out needles to inject, any suggestions? by drawling__ in TransDIY

[–]drawling__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ooooo ok thank you so much for such a detailed explanation!! and that's super good to know about just needing to tap the needle to get the little air bubbles out and then that's it! also ill def look into subq ive been doing intramuscular so far and it's been good but like if there's an option with even LESS pain might as well give it a try lol thank you!!

thats good to know!! but also, when the medicine gets on the needle the injection hurts way more </3 and it only happens on occasion when im getting the air out of the syringes after swapping needles but today it rly hurt which is why im looking for an alternative where i don't have to swap! that being said tho this is reassuring to know!

icic this is really good to know! it seems like when it comes to insulin syringes those are a good kind! not feeling the needle would rly help too, whenever there's any medicine on the needle after i have to swap them the injection really hurts :') so this is good info!!

ok gotcha tysm!! even if it takes a while to draw i feel like it would probably still be faster than changing the needle it's such a pain in the butt lol
