I’ve been scared of needles for some time and now I’ll have to face that fear, what’s some advice and how did it help you

Can you reuse needles if you clean them?
Is there a way to make the process smoother? Ect

I’ve been scared of needles for a long time

I don’t care if this thread makes me seem gay I just can’t keep taking things orally

How did you get through with your first injection?
There’s many ways to make injections hurt less.
You can stretch your skin with your thumb and index finger so the surface is smooth.
Your nerves would be kind of distracted on the stretching.
Another way is to get thinner needles,a 23 gauge needle hurts less than a 20 gauge but don’t exceed past 23-24 gauge.
And there’s also taking a mild pain killer like paracetamol before the injection.
It’s better not to use a cleaned unsterile needle unless you dip in 99% ethanol which I still wouldn’t do.

Have you tried an auto injector before?

Honestly I wouldn’t be scared of it.
You can do everything I said at once or do one method at a time.
The higher the gauge of the needle the thinner it is ,causing less pain.

even if u managed to get them 100% clean they get dull its better to use them just once or twice
