I have a funny story about the one time I tried to masturbate to cure a panic attack. I thought I was having the world’s worst panic attack after accidentally smoking laced weed. (It wasnt a panic attack, I had literally smoked crack and my heart was going insane). In my high and frantic state of mind I came up with the idea to attempt to masturbate to trick my body back into the parasympathetic state. My mom was in the room with me, Id already taken 1.5 mg of xanax trying to calm down (thinking it was a panic attack still, since weed has given my awful panic attacks), and my heart just kept going faster and faster, my chest and face were turning red, and there was immense pressure in my head (I’d never experienced two latter symptoms during a PA before, I was basically turning purple). So right in front of my mom I just started trying to masturbate lmao. Well, the physical activity of trying to masturbate only made my heart beat even faster and I passed out. Then came to again, tried masturbating, passed out again. It was the most terrifying experience ever, but I still kept trying to masturbate lmao. Soon enough my mom called 911 and she was giving me CPR while I was out cold. I still have PTSD from that.
