    Hey all,

    I'm having trouble not fapping after going several weeks without PMO.
    I don't have the problem of watching porn anymore, but after a few weeks, I have a raging boner when I'm trying to sleep, and I fap.

    The thing is that I don't have a huge hangover the next day, and I just don't feel that bad about it.
    There's no shame in masturbating for me, as long as it's done properly. That being said, I would much rather not masturbate at all, because I feel the benefits nofap. But I find it extremely difficult to control these urges because they just come out of nowhere.

    Any tips on how to fix this? This has been my problem for the last few months and I think fixing it will be my last problem for succeeding at Nofap.

    Bedtime is always a difficult time to avoid masturbating in my experience. Before I started NoFap, I would almost always masturbate before going to sleep. I am in the habit of sleeping naked which doesn't help. Even now, in spite of not fapping, I will fantasise and get a hard on when I get into bed. A few tips to avoid this.
    If you are not already doing so, wear comfortable boxer shorts, pyjamas or something else to create a barrier between your hand and your dick.
    Don't go to bed until you are really tired and will fall asleep within a few minutes - alternatively, read a book in bed until you start to doze off.
    Make a resolution that you are going to stop doing this and write this down, either on paper or somewhere on this forum. The very act of doing so will increase your willpower.
    Best of luck.

    I feel like I have exactly the same problem. During the day it's relatively ok, even though I have lots of hardons thinking about sex with mental images. But urges occur at night time when I going to bed. I find it extremely difficult to control these urges because they just come out of nowhere and sometimes waking up because of it. I just started to sleep with boxers to create a barrier between my hand and my dick. I keep saying that I can't toutch myself for a while «nofap, nofap, nofap» and then the raging boner goes away. During day time, a good way to get rid of urges is to take a mild shower. The problem for me is really at night time. I guess the urge will get less intense when i'll have my first nocturnal emission. Did you guys had some yet?
