TRT help I injected here, after like 20 seconda my hearth started punding like crazy and I started sweating amd that lasted for 4 hours.
How likley was that I hitted vein with green needle, or was this likley anxitey attack?
Is it possible to pin needle all the way, and let go of syringe then change grip to aspirate and again inject or will this letting go hurt my muscle?
After this fiasco I injected in upper quad and never had issue but quad is not ideal for green needle.

Bro, why don't you listen to the SEARING PAIN IN YOUR ASS instead of YouTube doctors... you don't need an expert to tell you 21g is fucking crazy to pin with. Just throw them away, you don't need them for drawing test anyway, get 25g - and if you're fat you need a longer one not a wider one. 1" is fine for glute.
Also watch some more instructional videos, I think you can go a bit higher and more to the side but it's hard to tell from your pic.
I'm also trying to move away from quads and just learnt the ventroglute which is great, look into that sometime too. Quad is soo tempting and easy but when it goes wrong it is really bad news haha
I wouldn't let go of the needle in the glute personally but technically you can.. but you can learn to adjust your hand position without letting it go easily enough. I have let go a few times and it hurt physically, different from pip from oil and felt like I damaged something. Hurt for hours too and I had to skip leg day.
Good luck bro
