First injection, failed hard

[sleepyfail]

Was sitting there with needle in hand. Just as I have thought about for so long. Was pretty nervous. Anyways, I put it on my thigh and sloooowly pushed it all the way in. Pain was minimal. At this point I had pretty much zoned out, it felt like I was in a dream. I remember trying to pull the plunger back to aspirate but at the same time being terrified of moving the needle around while tugging on that bitch. I didn't get any air bubble in the syringe even with applying alot more force than I had anticipated was needed. So sort of panicking I just wanted to get this thing out of my thigh and started injecting. Instantly I feel lightheaded and nautious but I kept slowly injecting for some seconds. Then my ears start ringing and I pretty much figure "this is how passing out feels", I really never have, and I panic yank the needle out and just sit there in some sort of upright fetal position for a couple of minutes. My parents must be so proud.

SO to recap, I now have 0,5ml of what is probably mostly test e 250 and some npp 125 in my thigh. And a syringe with 1 ml of the mix sitting needle up in my closet. I decided to switch to a sterile needle for storing it and after dicking around touching alot of shit, I managed to come in contact with the end of the syringe while changing needles, got some oil on my finger. Should I just throw this "batch" away now?

Also you guys agree that it was my mind playing tricks on me, not a faulty injection? And is aspirating supposed to be so much harder than injecting force wise?

And the rest of this injection, would it be a problem to shoot it in the same thigh but just move the injection site a couple of inches you think?

Probably some weird spelling here and there, not a native speaker

since this is your first post lets hear some stats before anyone gives you advice.

 

[sleepyfail]

22 years (and 10 months ) old
6'2"
Currently 201lbs about 10% coming off a cut, was hoping to "slingshot" back up some lbs on gear, tired of orals
Done a 6 week 60mg turanabol cycle and a 5 week 30mg dbol cycle within the last 18 months
Lifting since I was 18

 

[Typo]

I remember girls in high school that used to get dizzy and faint when they got their immunization needles, same thing.

The more you think about it and worry about it the harder it's going to be, it's just a little prick.

The plunger is hard to pull back sometimes depending on your set up and gear ect. Just keep pulling as gentle as you can until you see a tiny air bubble.
Don't worry about the needle moving around a little bit, as long as your not shaking while it's in there you should be ok.

Next time: Relax and breathe!

Badluck on the freaking out there bud! I know the feeling, first 4 times I tried to aspirate i was pulling and hands started to shake because It wasn't doing anything, but after the 5th one I started getting an air bubble, but I use 1 1/2inch nearly to the base so I wasn't too worried. comes with experience (the more steady hand and figure out pressure wise)
With the light headedness, like the guy said above.. You can nearly hyperventilate, or freak out (from what you describe you were pretty shaky) so next time should be better! If you can afford to get rid of that needle... Probably should if you've changed needle a few times and touched the tips etc. But it's up to you!

Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure I held my breath...

Maybe that will be the deciding factor, I've heard the brain likes oxygen and whatnot

I'll give it a go again soon

But when you replace a needle, that seems like the most "un-sterile" part of the process to me. I mean the connection between the needle and syringe, I just about feel the germs hopping from my hands into there. You wear gloves or something?

I'm assuming needle you mean the whole shebang? I've got plenty of test but not so much NPP, but whatever. That one injection more or less of NPP isn't going to make or break my cycle. I'd rather not have an infection

You don't touch the needle when changing it right... :/ (just open package and pop it on from inside the packet... Very little change over time and such)
Bit confused as to what you're touching and such haha. Don't touch the unless it's through cleaned skin! Haha

despite what IQ tests say, sometimes I think I'm retarded. Thanks for the whole package tip

anyways I threw the syringe away and loaded up a new one. I was more hesitant this time since I switched thigh and it felt a little off at first. But I just started pushing and these 25g slide through so easily! I got somewhat light headed for a few seconds but I just took some deep breaths and it was alright. The aspiration worked perfectly now and injecting was a breeze.

Thanks for the support!

Hahah yeah man don't touch the stuff at the start basically, open packet a and b (syringe and needle) and assemble, while still in package if you... dislike germs lol.
Sounds good though man, the nerves can be bad but you worked it out, goodluck for the rest!!

 

[stevesmi]

I don't like the idea of pinning thighs for a first injection.

the best place to pin the first time is the delts. and you can numb the nerves on the skin with some ice.

 

[zedhed]

Glad you got it all sorted. That was just the first time jitters bro. You will do fine. Do try delts like steve said its a breeze, even for someone as shakey as I am. I swear when I manage to get myself twisted around to hit delts the top of the dam plunger must cover a 3" raduis! But as long as the needle dosnt break off all is cool.

 

[Sherk]

Your needles should come with a cap on them so there shouldn't be an issue with touching the actual needle while applying it to the syringe.

yeah, the cap is on, it was just that I was taking the needle, with the cap, out of the packet when attaching it to the syringe when the best solution is to leave it in there I think.

Anyway I see a lot of you guys are recommending delts, might give it a go soon, but only using one hand seems somewhat tricky to me. But I guess I'll find out when the time comes

As for injection site pain I think my virgin thighs will be pretty sore tomorrow. 9pm here and about 6-8 hours since injections and can feel it somewhat, but the worst part comes later I think from what I've read. Oh well, a few days as a parapalegic might make me a humble man...

 

[EarthRider]

you can go to the dr and ask them to show you how? what do you tell them, on why you need to learn?

 

[stevesmi]

just go online and watch a video on youtube how to do it and hit your delt like i said above. its easy. after a couple times you will be a pro.

otherwise stick with orals. mr supps has buy one get one free deal going.

 

[C.K.]

get someone who knows how to inject your glutes the first few times or just do an oral cycle seriously the pain of a needle is nothing even compared to the pain of a good workout

 

[sterolizer]

My first injection ever was pretty much the same thing. I held my breath and almost fainted

 

[C0LUMB0]

I did quads for my first ever shot , its fine - keep breathing and dont try to rush it. why are you using npp if this is your first cycle ?
that will require even more shots and you dont even know how you will react to test.

first injectable cycle = testosterone only my friend.

look at spotinjections.com and drop the npp

 

[Backtobasicks]

Do you pinch the skin or hold it taut? I've read differing opinions.. Whilst pinching the skin it seems easier for me, but if while the needle is in I let go of the skin it feels like something is tearing so I have to continue pinching.
maybe I'll be normal and just pop it in normal :/.
Hope your shots are working out smoother now Op

I just popped it in there, the skin does "follow" the needle in a bit but I take so long injecting that I don't want to be holding anything

Injected a couple of hours ago, a full dose this time even. It was pretty damn smooth I must say. I'll admit that I stared at the needle for a good 30 sec, but it's getting faster. Takes a while to inject if the oil is "cold" so I just sort of keep the syringe in my peripheral vision while injecting. My mind got some sort of primal fear of focusing on the oil being injected it seems, so it makes it easier for me to not stare directly at it.

As for pain I'm amazed how little I've experienced so far, feels like a good punch but I've felt way worse after a good squatting session. The gear is UG but the brand is the best I can get my hands on domestically and it seems promising so far!

 

[Judo Tom]

warm the juice up by running it under hot water.. either while in the vial or when it is in the syringe ready to inject..
oh and RELAX THOUSANDS of people do this everyday.. breathe.. take your time its not a race...

watch some videos and just visualize yourself doing it

 

[Faststangxxx]

first injectable cycle with npp? why?

 

[plus44racer182]

damn i though I was careful you guys make me sound reckless I guess its b/c I do ed shots and have been for a while. I just stick it, aspirate and inject no nonsense, I have been playing with injection sites even like calves traps etc ......

Its his first few injections man
He's nervous, going through standard procedure kinda thing

 

[sterolizer]

For my first few weeks I had to sit in front of a t.v with a fan blowing on me to keep me cool because I would always get so nervous, and I would use the t.v to keep my mind distracted. Now it's just stick it and push. I never aspirate because I find it pointless, I'm going deep enough every time, so what's the point...

 

[UA_Iron]

It was in your mind bro.

I passed out when I was giving blood a few months ago giving blood, its a reaction you can't fight and you are absolutely not aware it's happening. (I was pretty famished when I was giving blood in an Urgent Care, turned out i was fine).

I hit my quads with 6ml's everyday in one shot, you'll be fine buddy.

I pinned my calves once and will never do it again lol, damn that was painfull the next day. I don't like traps either, too many nerves

 

[Backtobasicks]

I can empathize badly today... Routine quad... Avoided visible vains, went in and felt off... Relaxed and pushed further and my toes spasmed and hurt like hell, so I had to give up on that for the moment.. Trying to control bleeding. Went to give myself a melanotan shot into stomach adipose... Managed to inject into a blood vessel and didn't notice until after.
Not my day lol

 

[jiggagold]

damn my first one i just stuck it in my delt when i was in the car, i was jacked up ready to go and jabbed that fucker in, my first quad inject the needle was dull and i had to jab that fucker in i bet half of u would of passed out if u saw my quad was sore as fuck the next day!! and after reading this thread how do you guys even aspirate? In some spots its impossible i figure if i cant pull it back with a little effort im good to go, why do some of u pull so hard theres an air bubble?
