You can/should inject T and hCG with #29 1/2" 0.5ml insulin syringes. Not 1.0ml and separate injections. Inject over upper leg were you can see what you are doing. Pinch some skin up a bit and inject into end of fold with needle parallel to muscles below. T will be slow to load, injections are fast enough. hCG is fragile, never shake, load and inject slow. hCG should not be shipped to you wet.
You will find that you will hardly feel the injections. Avoid veins.
Your hCG dose is 500iu twice a week. Please do not discuss in volumes as potencies are not standardized.
200mg T per week is often a bad idea.
Anastrozole 0.5mg/week will not manage 200mg T/week, or typically not even 100mg/week.
TSH is horrible, should be closer to 1.0
suspect that you have not been using iodized salt and are iodine deficient.
This lowers your metabolic rate, making you feel tired, depressed etc and prone to fat gain.
Low thyroid function can deny you most/many of the benefits of TRT.
SEE LAST PARAGRAPH.
Many aspects of how you were feeling were thyroid related.
fT3 is the active hormone and should be tested.
Please directly edit your post and add lab ranges.

Evaluate your overall thyroid function by checking oral body temperatures as per the thyroid basics sticky. Thyroid hormone fT3 is what gets the job done and it regulates mitochondrial activity, the source of ATP which is the universal currency of cellular energy. This is part of the body’s temperature control loop. This can get messed up if you are iodine deficient. In many countries, you need to be using iodized salt. Other countries add iodine to dairy or bread.
