    My second day here, and all of this thinking about no fapping made me have a lot of sex dreams.
    So I woke hard like a rock...

    For a moment I thought I should try to make it soften, but then I realized I wasn't horny at all. I was just hard.
    In past situations when I woke up like that, I didn't really had pleasure if I'd M. The hardness had nothing to do with fantasizing or porn, but body functions (piss, pressure etc).

    I know this time I got it because of the dreams, but even so I didn't want to MO, I just wanted to stay like that - cause it felt good. Feels like all of my body is stretching, getting ready to work. lol
    After a couple of minutes I got up and forgot about it.

    But now I'd like to know about you guys: how do you deal with it?

    Just let it ride out bro. Don't mess with it. You will start to associate waking up with M and that might lead you to P. Plus, the benefits of no M are awesome. Esp if you workout.

    First of all, let me just say that morning wood is a good thing. It means you're healthy, and you have proper testosterone levels. So there's nothing to worry about or want to change there. My morning wood goes away by simply getting up and taking a piss. If you're married, I recommend flipping your wife over on her belly and slamming it in her.

  4. Like Jason said, this is definitely a good thing and is a sign that you're healthy. Find something first thing in the morning to take your mind off of it. Example..I need coffee before anything, so when I wake up like that I just acknowledge it, throw on some sweats and go start to make the coffee. By the time I get that going, it's gone and I can go about my morning. It rarely lingers around for me. Key is to move fast. Don't lay in bed and think about it. Get up and start your day! Hope this helps.

    I just enjoy it. Means things are getting back to normal. Mine has woken me up at 2am the last 2 nights. I wake up with a rock hard erection and I think it has to be time to get up.

    Interestingly enough, one of the reasons that erection/sexual arousal drugs work for men and not women is that for a guy, having an erection is enough. Sex can start with the physical and move to the mental/emotional. Men are totally comfortable using a morning erection.

    The drugs that produce erections in men also can work to lubricate and get a vagina ready for sex, but women don't respond to that. There was a study where women's internals were monitored to see if they were aroused to sexual imagery. They had a probe in and had a dial to rate their level of arousal to sexual images, even images they wouldn't normally be attracted to. Even when they rated something very low on the dial, their internal readings showed their bodies showed signs of sexual arousal.

    So for women, the mental part of it has to be there.

    You don't "deal with it" you wake up and say hello to it :) Its a good thing to have morning wood-means you have good testosterone levels and your porn use has not damaged your sexual health.

    Yes I agree with all of you that say it's a good thing. Until I started fighting against my problem I rarely had morning wood but now that I'm working at it I've gotten it back. I see it as an accomplishment
