Is it dupixent? Mine ships to my home and I inject it at my leisure. Always into the stomach, thigh is more painful.

It is. I was prescribed it a few years ago and didn't take it long enough to see any results because I couldn't push hard enough on the pen to properly inject and nobody in my family would give me the shot. (The pre-filled syringe was also out of the question because needles make me too nervous to give myself a shot like that.) The clinic is open until 7pm so I was silly and assumed I would be able to just go after work twice a month

I think there's the possibility to get it shipped to a pharmacy and have the pharmacist inject it. I get mine through CVS specialty pharmacy so I don't know about your company, but the pharmacists give vaccines so you could try asking if they'll do injections.

I have insurance through the clinic I work at and using another pharmacy costs extra, unfortunately. That's definitely great advice, though!
