First Mounjaro jab - needle came out slightly bent

I did my first MJ (2.5mg) dose today in my upper arm. It took a bit more pressure than I thought to fully push down the dose knob and my hand was a little bit shaky (the whole injecting myself for the first time thing!) When I took it out, the needle was at an angle, it wasn't straight any more. It's such a fine needle (finer than I thought) - I guess easy for this to happen, but has this happened to anyone else? The only time I've ever used an injector pen before this was an epi pen (on someone else, in a first aid context) and those are auto injectors which feel very different.

Hopefully I haven't done it terribly wrong!

Probably being silly worrying, just need a hand hold!
