Does it ever get normal? When do you stop second guessing?

Just a quick update:
Package arrived Monday afternoon. Box looked like it was run over but contents were undamaged. HCG reconstituted per included instructions. Sharps container set up.

My wife was worried that I would not be able to self inject, because I have a 'strong' vasovagal response. I just set up in the quietest space in the house and got to it. Concentrated on the mechanics of what needed to be done. Sub-q'd the HCG 1st as I knew from reading here that it would be the easiest. Walked it off. Let the wife know one down, one to go. Got back to the test injection and just took care of it. I got a little flush feeling so not knowing what to expect I laid down on the bed. After a couple minutes it passed and I felt fine again.

1st self-injections done! It'll get easier. On the road to feeling better

Make sure you put the hcg vial in the refrigerator. After its reconstituted, it needs to stay cold.

I'm just shy of two weeks in. HCG 3 times already, and Test 4 times. Still strange as hell, and I hate it. However, oddly enough I was looking forward to getting more test in me last night. Part of it is likely placebo, but my workouts where in a major funk for a while and feel back on track. I didn't expect it to "kick in" so quick, but my total test was sub 200, and even came up 57 on one of the four labs I had done prior to starting.

One serious question guys...does it ever bother you that if you dont inject for 2.weeks you would become seriously mentaly unstable? I mean i am not on trt yet but i always have that thought that with every trt injection you only have one week life left... Its probably a stupid thought but thats why i am asking, whats your view on that?

No. If you really need it, for sure for sure, then no - you just deal. As far as I am concerned, I had a health issue as serious as something like cancer and it was fixed with testosterone injections. I was a walking zombie. For the guys around here who actually had low T, especially those <200 TT, they were likely mentally unstable to begin with.

Those who can answer yes are likely the guys who probably didn't really have really low testosterone and got on strictly for superficial reasons such as muscle gain.

Why would you become mentally unstable if you don't pin for two weeks? That doesn't make any sense.

Testosterone is a hormone, found naturally in the body, Not a drug with physical addictions, like heroin that when someone is on may actually need to keep injecting and not stop suddenly or they could die.
Hormones are nothing like that

If on TRT, why would you not pin for two weeks should be the real question

I have pancakes on a Saturday and bacon on a sunday... I like routine.
Pinning Tuesday and Friday is no different a routine than pancakes and bacon, in fact it's over quicker (although to be fair, I do wolf my bacon)

Look at it like this, those jabs are going to make you a man. Give you the ability to satisfy a woman, crank out a workout, function properly at work, and the energy to play with your kids (if you have them)

Why would you fear something that is going to restore your masculinity and vitality.

You make no sense whatsoever!

It is a concern. I make sure I get regular injections. The thought that T could be banned is a concern.

They can't ban a natural substance required for the body to sustain life. The problem is that lawyers have done a great job mucking things up to make a quick buck. The ONLY thing I can see the FDA doing, is making it more difficult to be prescribed TRT.

Of course, I'm of the firm belief that if you need TRT, you won't have anything to worry about as it's a medicine. Well, I worry about as much as them yanking my insulin scripts.
