My spouse administers their own shots for their Chron's disease medication; are the shots pretty much like... the tubular thingies wherein the needle's kinda hidden and all you feel is the prick after pressing a button? Or is it like... the full-on here's-a-fucking-needle-good-luck-chump shot?

It’s been years since I took them, but at the time I used something that looks like the image below. Not a huge needle, and injected into an area with fatty tissue like the thigh or stomach so didn’t really hurt either.
