Needle Fatigue

My needle fatigue has gotten out of hand in the last couple weeks; it's to the point where I'm almost passing out doing my (IM) injections and I'm shaking so much that the shots are nearly impossible to administer.

I'm going to PP next week for an HRT checkup, and going to ask about my options. I might be able to handle doing SubQ injections, but that might still be hard for me. It's frustrating bc my injections started out easy and something I would look forward to, but now they cause so much anxiety that I do my doses late, start and can't finish administering them, or even skip a week. My dysphoria has been horrible lately as well, with this making it worse.

I'm hoping androgel will be my saving grace. Though I do have toxicophobia and worry about having T on my fingers/hands and resultently my face, I still think this will be manageable. Testosterone is helping save my life, and it is so important to me to keep a healthy regiment for taking it.

Fingers crossed I can get the gel.

The direction and warning sheet of T-gel btw

[shit-my-asexual-friend-says]

T-gel is alcohol-based, so it's best to refrain from being on fire until it has dried thoroughly.

So I’m about 10 and 1/2 months on T now, I’ve been on both gel and nebido injections. A lot of my mutual’s are looking at starting T soon or in the future and I was wondering if people would like it if I did a Q&A? I know questions about T stuff can be hard and embarrassing but Anon is active and with few exceptions I’ll answer most things put to me with what I know. 

If you have a question about anything for the next little while shoot me an ask. (this can be social, legal, or to do with hormones and honestly you can ask regardless of if you want to transition or not, its important to be educated.) I’ll tag everything “transition q&a” and put it as a link on my blog main if there are a few.

I seriously fucking need to transition.

Seeing "2 years on T" etc posts make me so envious and just re-affirms all the aspects of my body that I really fucking hate. I am agender, I'm not a man, but I told that to my GP and she didn't believe me, thought I was "confused" and told she didn't know what to do with me so I need to look stuff up anyway. I felt rejected to say the least and very apprehensive of going back, and I feel like an idiot for being honest.

Going on tostran gel or something would feel like a good step forward, but it doesn't have all that visible effects (or does it? message me if you know more) so a full dose of T might be what it takes, but I seriously fear the consequences of doing that under parents' noses given the horror that was coming out to them.

I'm looking online for some T-gel that doesn't need a prescription, but I'm very reluctant to go down that route. Does not feel legit. But I might have to do it either as a last resort or to push my GP into fucking doing something.
