    Well I guess I am a little dangerous now that homophobes have driven me to finally get a gun for protection from them

            usually it’s a different language that is most commonly used for amoguses, but we do also have an amogus character

    interestingly, i don’t have a conscious fear of needles but whatever self preservation mechanisms run in my brain go completely ape shit if i do a self injection.

    it used to take me up to 2h to do my own T shots, and sometimes those instincts would present so intensely i was inches away from passing out (tunnel vision, ringing in my ears). i don’t fear needles, i don’t fear the pain, there barely is any to begin with, but my brain is hell-bent on not getting stabbed by my own hand. piercing the skin isn’t hard, but it sometimes took me 10min of trying to make my hand move and it just would not. i had to disassociate myself with loud music or youtube videos just so i could do it, and after i finally succeeded, i was often drenched in sweat and needed chocolate to stop feeling light headed

    after 4 years of that with no improvement, i decided to just go to a local clinic and have a nurse help me, and now my T shots take a whole maybe 15min at most (other people >:|). i have no idea why that ridiculous gelatine of the head panics so violently it tries to turn off conciousness if i try to stab myself with a needle on my own, but if someone else does it’s like “huh, ok”

    just why

      I’m only able to stab myself when I’m confident I’ve done everything right. I was lucky enough to have someone with ton of professional experience walk me through it the first time. If it wasn’t for her, I probably would never have gotten as comfortable as I am (this isn’t to say it doesn’t still suck).

      It also probably helps that I feel time limited. If I wait too long after sterilizing the injection site, it tends to sting. I probably spend most of the time meticulously setting up and drawing properly, because once I get ready to stab, I don’t leave room for thought.
