I feel like I am overreacting and clutching my pearls.

Context: I am very, very into a cartoon called Helluva Boss. It has always been known for its raunchy humour and sex jokes, which I'm completely fine with, but I had just watched the new episodes and I ended up having an anxiety attack about the sex scene/musical number in one of the latest episodes.

I can handle it when it's a humorous, jokey context, but this sequence was very raunchy/kinky. The creator did warn of this previously at panels, but I don't think I was fully prepared. It made me sweat, and I had to look away for most of it, and it sent me into a bit of an anxiety attack.

I feel very stupid for this, as it's just a cartoon at the end of the day. I just don't think I was fully prepared for it. I don't enjoy sex scenes as a whole, even if there aren't genitals shown, but I feel that since this was a lot different to the usual funny context, I got extremely flustered.

I was watching with my roommate, and I felt very stupid and embarrassed for reacting this way. I think I just want to know that I'm not alone in this. I feel like if I post in the subreddits/about it on twitter, I'll be met with 'well what did you expect' type stuff but I truly feel the show has never been this direct.

I'm autistic too, and I kinda feel like a comfort show for me made me uncomfortable, and it was unexpected. I just have a lot of feelings about it.
