Just another option for the OP. It seems as if he may be scared to shove a needle deep into his muscles (understandably) and for a lot of people subq injects are much easier to attempt your first go around. I know it was for me. For the record IMO IM injections are far superior, safer, and easier to perform using oil IME.
But to a person who might be afraid a sub-q injection may be easier to perform.
