Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below Can some one help? I have never taken injectable, I want to but am nervous, what is the best way and area to inject? A friend told me that if you inject into the blood stream by accident it can kill you. Is this true? I know I sound like dork but I really don't know much about injectables.

google "intramuscular injection techniques" or something similar. there are several websites that take you through the process, and show you all the plausible locations for IM injections with color photos and everything.
It's hard to just tell you. A picture and diagram will help a ton.
If you inject into the bloodstream, it could kill you. A vascular system full of oil isn't exactly natural. That's why you aspirate, and ensure you are not injecting into a vein.
Doctor's offices do IM injections daily, and I have never heard of anyone dying from it, so don't let that freak you out.
As far as pain with injecting, it doesn't really hurt. pinning with thin needles doesn't hurt. the actual injection may sting, but that's all i have ever gotten from it.
