Urges at night

I totally feel you man. A long hard battle. Struggly with night time urges myself and 90% of my relapses are at night as well. Try meditation, or getting out of bed and reading a book (no tablets, phones - a print book) if you are having urges. Work on sleep hygiene. "Say Goodnight to Insomnia" can help by Gregg D. Jacobs

 

plug in the headphone in your tab and start listening to some motivational or devotional stuff..(always works for me)
good luck..

 

Read paper books or kindle in bed.
It's also better for your brain to read books than to surf the web. It improves concentration and focus. I've been doing this for 10 days now, I have three books in my bed I read them alternatively.
I find it good to have no electronics in bed.

 

read paper book
stop using the tab
stay strong

 

My suggestion is stop using the tablet in bed, bed is for sleeping. If you cant sleep get up and read a book or play a game or something, preferably a real book not an eBook. Screens actually disrupt our circadian rythm which makes it harder to sleep especially when we are in front of them right before bed.

 

What you just described is exactly me , well ... the old me . What helped me get rid of this habit are 2 things :
1. my tablet was stolen . I have to thank that thief because he really helped me in this as it is hard to get my laptop with me to bed ... So you should either get your tablet stolen or just force yourself to charge it in another room at night . Give it to someone for a couple of days if necessary .
2. I developed an awesome habit of working out for at least 15 minutes before going to bed (now I've increased it to 30) . You will be too tired to even hold your tablet with your hands lol . I have a couple of dumbbells at home , so I do pushups and many workouts with dumbbells .
If you can buy a couple of dumbbells , you will never regret it . Trust me , mine are about 6 years old now and they are my best friends

 

What @Musta said!

Charge your tablet in another room! And work out before bed. The goal is to make yourself too exhausted to relapse or slip, without using screens.

 

I am in the same boat, pretty much all of my slips and relapse have happened at night. Sadly I am a Diabetic and my blood sugar often keeps me up for hours into the night trying to manage it down to a safe number before I can finally get to sleep. Right now I am holding things together by spending time on nofap and trying to get writing work done when ever I have the inspiration and time.

 

You're definitely not alone in these struggles. My urges and fantasies generally come quite strongly when I'm already in bed trying to get to sleep, and that's when I kind of convince myself that to get to sleep I'll need to PMO.

But everyone elses advice is pretty wise - avoid technology before bed. Listen to calming music maybe - do something that makes you sleepier, and perhaps try being really strict with yourself and setting a firm time when you'll go to bed and turn everything off.

Best of luck pal
