Welcome, Josephine! I also have to inject. It's annoying to stab myself once a week, but it's the safer and easier method for me. Just to give you a head's up, you will get a burst of hormones and they will slowly fade until your next injection. Expect your emotions to ramp up the first day or so after injecting. My bestie tells me that it's like I'm having my period every week!
That sounds like quite a trial.
Worth it though! I had to learn how to deal with it and I spent (coincidentally) the last few years learning about emotion regulation. I still feel the fluctuations and cry often at small things, but it doesn't cripple me like it did initially.
