I've been exploring bdsm for several years now and it really does help with anxiety. Yes, of course its hot to get fucked and play, I mean duh! But something about asking for a little pain then receiving it is so helpful for me when I'm feeling overwhelmed. My partner locked me into this spreader bar then gave me a few snacks with a riding crop and a stick. I wasn't too sure how I'd like the stick but it gave a good "thud" against my skin and it made me laugh and shriek at the same time. I filmed it too if anyone is curious how we play around with tools like this. I highly recommend trying it for a partner that gets overwhelmed with stimuli or just wants to tune out the world. The person that receives the touch has to 100% pay attention to what is happening in the moment and that helps with focus.
Do you like a lil therapeutic touch now and then?
