I got my treatment plan through today yall I'm so excited to start T aahhHHH

That said does anyone have tips for overcoming needlephobia to do their T shots? I know about and am going to buy some of these doodads to help with the pain factor

But my main concern is dealing with the ampuoles, like, how do you break them open without getting glass everywhere?

And another question, how did yall approach your GP about it? I need to make an appointment and want it face to face so I can hand over my treatment plan too. I want to ask if they'll do shared care but have my doubts as they wouldn't even put me transitioning on my medical records and reluctantly referred me to Tavistock and said 'good luck' basically. So I don't hold out much hope for shared care but how do I even go about asking for it?

I know what bloods I need doing and also how frequently so that's not an issue. I know how to ask for those from the receptionists or phlebotomist but idk shy I'm just shy on asking my GPs for help? I guess cos I've gone the private route for now ultimately isn't it...?

Also how long does the soreness last in your thigh/butt after injecting IM? Hdvdhdhdh

CC: I wish I were a boy. Not all the time, just sometimes. I wish I could put on eyeliner and glitter and actually look good and have girls whisper about me in bookshops because I look like a character from their favourite book. And I wish I were a boy with dark, fluffy hair, that I love to mess up and shake and makes everyone stop and stare. And I wish I were a boy so I’d finally look cute in dresses and skirts and pants and suits. And I wish I were a boy with a deep rock n roll voice that makes people stop in their tracks but I dont have that choice. And I wish that I did because every song that I write for myself, never sounds right because it was meant to be sung by somebody else. I’m happy being me but sometimes I wonder, what I would look like as the opposite gender. Would I finally be happy being me, because I like being a girl, but...
