Restarting MJ - nervous

Restarting MJ today ( maybe 😂) My pen's been delivered, I lost 2 stone on MJ last year then came off in September until now. I did 2.5mg my whole journey!

Starting on 2.5mg again...why am I so nervous about re-starting?? I had actual anxiety about it last night!

I had no side effects, apart from a bit of tiredness, I did have some palpitations, but I generally suffer from a bit of anxiety anyway so I'm unsure if that was the MJ or me working myself up!

Just tell me to do it and stop being a baby 😂

Come and join the February starters thread and we can all be nervous together. 😁. I think it does feel quite scary but you know what to expect. Just take the plunge. Literally (see what I did there?)

I don't know why you are nervous and would recommend just getting on and doing the injection, you'll remember how straightforward it is and how not a big deal it is as nothing at all will happen straight away.

I found it anticlimactic when I first did it! Sure you'll feel the same. Just do it and get back on the horse.
