Don't ground yourself! It is a recipe for disaster. You have a good chance at a shock if you do.
For ESD you always have a high impedance ~1meg to ground.
Ground is not the same everywhere and transients can realy ruin your day.
If you accidentally touch anything live you will ensure a big shock, while if you are not grounded the high impedance to ground may offer a little more protection (protection by limited impedance, in IEC terms).
Just stick you voltage meter between your PE conductor and for instance Cable TV, Central Heating, your tap, coax Ethernet (if you still have it
, etc. and you can imagine how it would feel
