I have little bags prepared with all the stuff I need for each injection (needle, syringe, cotton pad, plaster), which eliminates most of the hassle involved when actually doing an injection - all I need to do is grab a bag, sharps container, isopropyl (which is right on my desk) and E vial (which I keep in the basement for temperature reasons). The bags, sharps container, and syringe/needle boxes are just kinda crammed into the top shelf of my closet, which... well...

spoiler: nsfw? nsfw-adjacent? probably sfw, unless your boss is kinky

(for the uninitiated, all the bottles and sprays are cleaner/shiner/dressing aid for latex clothes, and the thing in the foreground is a nogasm)

    I just use a tissue doused in isopropyl before the injection and also after, to disinfect post-injection?

    pretty much the same - i use those round cotton makeup remover pads instead of tissues (to avoid tearing). i just hold it to the neck of the isopropyl bottle and shake once or twice to get the pad damp but not soaked, and use separate pads for disinfecting the rubber stopper and my skin. disinfecting again after the injection is new to me - i just slap a plaster on as quickly as possible after removing the needle.
