Spontaneous erections causing intense desire to masturbate?!

    Hey everyone,

    As men, we have natural spontaneous erections throughout the day. That's normal and isn't an issue but I noticed recently that every time I have a spontaneous erection, it cause me to have intense desire to masturbate. It feels like an "itch" that I can't subside. Hope that makes sense?

    Any one of you have this same issue? If so, how did you overcome this?

    Thanks!

    I also have same sensation especially with morning erections because my pijama give me easy access. I would love to hear how to deal with it!

    Sounds a good option. You avoid additional friction due to the movement so the erection can go down. Thanks for sharing.

    What about the erections throughout the day other than natural morning erections?

    yes i meant for both, one time when i was in a taxi i got a random erection *real story* so i just tilted my left leg so nobody could see it, then pulled my mobile out and started putting on some music and listened to it through my ear buds and concentrated on the lyrics rather than whats happening in my pants. and therefore no further body movements that could potentially keep it going.

    it all depends on the scenario. if ur at school lunch then just put ur bag on ur pants and then put ur mobile in ur hand (so nobody suspects anything) and start reading some boring stuff and it will go down since ur not moving and ur concentrating on something else

    this method works for me

  7. If I'm at home and this happens I sometimes just play a video game to distract myself.

    I think it's natural for we as men to have erections throughout the day. We cannot stop it. It's what defines us as men. I think I need to work on "disconnecting" the association of spontaneous erections with the desire to PMO. I had a morning erection when I woke up. No way for me to stop them.

    I think we need daily erections to maintain our healthy sex life. In fact, the lack of erection is an indication that something could be wrong with your system. Now, when you start getting horny because the time with no sex or masturbation, you start getting more sensible down there and any friction can create an excuse to be arouse and start thinking in masturbation. I believe that is the difficult part for single people or people without partner; because you can have sex with your partner and that will reset the increasingly heat that you feel there. The main goal is being able to distract your attention to avoid failing in the trap. Let’s keep trying...

    I know the feeling about the friction part. That's one reason why I no longer wear boxers for this reason. It causes friction.

    You have to understand that when you're fighting an urge, you're actually rewiring your brain

    you just have to resist the urge. take yourself out of the situation. And by no mean touch yourself.
