I've asked for pain when my head has been a mess because I know it's one of the most effective ways to clear it and help rebalance me. I've also played with Doms who were stressed/upset/going through sh*t. Not necessarily purely as a masochist, sometimes it's sensation play, which is calming, sometimes it's as a hypnotist, because, well, that's like a big mental cuddle. Way back when I'd be the thing that people took out their anger and aggression on, resiliant little thing that I was. I don't intend to be in the same situation again, if I offer now (as a masochist), it's an informed choice because I care about the person I'm offering to, the offer is made from a place of love. I don't take the place of the thing they hate, just give them a forum to work through their emotions. I can do it with traditional therapy, hypnosis, etc, but sometimes, aggressive play is the most effective way to get to where you want/need to be.
