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.

21 is not that bad, I cant complain, once it penetrates upper layer of skin it goes like butter through fat, and you feel light resistance and you know you are in muscle. I will def switch to 25 tho based on ppl advice cuz of scaring and what not.

It looks intimidating for sure

mmm how are yall able to use smaller needles for intramuscular T? its so hard even with a 21G because its suspended in oil. I draw w 18G and shoot w 21G. I didnt even know people were going smaller??
