    First shot jitters...

    Is it common to feel like your gonna pass out after your 1st shot? PLus I kinda feel short of breath. Anyone else had this?

    thats exactly how i felt on my first shot, dizzyness, sweatiness, hot and short of breath. your just nervous bro, nothing to worry about. i had a friend of mine shoot me up and i was scared shitless. after the first couple of shots, i took it on my own to learn how to do it. now, i shoot myself up regularly like its second nature.

    dude, it took me 2 weeks of every day injections before I got rid of that feeling. we have a phobia of needles. I shoot 3cc ed, so it takes me a good 3 minutes to inject...there isn't any pain but I had to stop a few times, lean back and take deep breaths. You will get over it eventually. Once you come to realize there isn't that much to worry about. I still get nervous as soon as I smell the alcohol. Welcome to the dark side brother!

    I had a smile as soon as I read the title to the thread. I knew what you were going to ask. I think we all have had that our first time. It can make you very nervous sticking something into yourself. My first time I jabbed so light, it bounced off my leg and landed on the floor. ( change of needle) the second try went right in, felt good, shot up, pulled out needle, walked to bed, and laid down with hot spells and spinning. LOL It will pass bro. Good luck

    The first time is usually easier than expected for most people. The jitters go away and the length of the process gets shorter with experience.

    I do the opposite. If my muscles are cold they're also tight, so I take a pre-injection shower or massage the site with a warm cloth.

    If I'm ever hesitant to inject, I usually throw on a couple of MP3's and crank up the stereo to take my mind off things.

    Ofcourse you r nervous the first times, then U realise it doesn´t hurt that much and finally u come to tha day when u are happy to inject... pretty sick actually!
    If i inject an oil-based roid i always let a drop run down the needle, that way it runs smoother.
    If its water.based (winny) I try to avoid that drop, and just like Excess iI try to to it when my muscle is warm and soft.
    Good luck bro!

    Ya, before my first shot I was doing some reading on how if you miss and tag a vein that it could stop your heart.

    Well, I took my first shot in the quad and felt like I was gunna black out. I hella got the sweats and had to lay down. Needless to say I was alright, but for a second there I was wondering if I should get up and write my will real quick.
