What does "raquetié" mean?

I'm having some trouble translating a post I read today. The user wrote:

  • "Raquetié con todo en mi terapia como nunca en mi vida".

I have no idea what "raquetié" means. I translated the rest of the sentence to mean: "_____ with everything in my therapy like never in my life". I tried looking it up using "Raquetar/er/ir as the infinitive, but it doesn't appear to be a verb. It's probably colloquial. The user is from Mexico, so I don't know if it's slang from there or even a misspelling of another word. Here it is in another context from another writer:

  • "Esta semana raquetié toda la música alternativa echa acá en los últimos 5 años".

Could it possibly be a misspelling of "traquetear" (to rattle or bustle about (its usage in Mexico)), but it makes no sense in the context of the sentence. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
