I get nervous about my shot every week. Mainly on my shot day. I find that the anticipation is worse than the actual shot. I try to keep that in mind. But I'm quite relieved once it's over.

Same here. ^


Also, I found that injecting the needle into my thigh reeeaaallllyyy slowlyy helps me deal with the fear/anxiety.  Because I can breathe slowly/deeply while needle is going in.  Whereas I used to freak out so much before when I would stab myself fast with the needle because that was too sudden for me to deal with.
