Is it me or does everyone's urges come out the most at night?

Discussion in 'Loneliness' started by JustaSimpleMan1, Dec 2, 2020.

  1. I think like 80% of my fuck ups happen at night when I'm alone in bed. I start getting all of these negtaive thoughts/emotions. Some of them are true but they are mostly old and rehashed offering little wisdom/guidance. This is when PMO is the most tempting.

    Is it me or is this when most of ya'll fuck up too?

    You have to fill your mind with something before sleeping and also improve your sleeping habits so that you get asleep faster.
     
  4. Yess, especially If I am not able to sleep or wake up at the middle of the night.

    I want to bust nuts every time I accomplish something valuable like doing great at work, finishing a great set of workout... I feel like I want to award myself for those good deeds. I get very excited getting into it but after that I feel guilty, wishing I could not have done it.
     
  6. Even after writing this post last night, I got tempted into looking at some old pics a chick sent me. At night, I just get this negativity for some reason. Fortunately, I stayed clean.

    Bruh, why do you stay in contact with such kind of people?
    Leave them right away, they have no right to waste your precious life.
    The choice is in your hands.

  8. This is a girl that I still may see when she comes back from over seas. I am not against friends with benefits but yeah I definitely do not want to get into the habit of "sexting". I don't do that anymore and I also never do dating apps anymore.

  9. It makes sense. It is because you are tired and your mental shields go down. Alcohol, sleep deprivation, lack of food and even sugar and caffeine can result in urges.

  10. If a girl does that to me I set up boundaries right away. If it is long distance it is complicated but just tell her something like: I would rather do this when we meet in person.

  11. Again the urges hit me at night. It's so weird. I'm watching one of my favorite shows but I can't fully relax for some reason. I'm biting my nails. I'm tense. I'm contemplating eating junk food. I just spent the last hour contemplating doing PMO while I'm watching the show. It's weird because it's like I can't just chill by myself. If I'm unoccupied, the temptations come in strong. The good news is that I made a no-pmo creed this morning and printed it out so that I can read it first thing in the morning and at night before bed. I will go read it when i go to bed soon. But WTF about this nightly shit...

  12. The mental shields are down and all kinds of clever rationalizations are coming in strong! It is 10:46PM over here. I am by myself and unoccupied.

    I know that feeling way too well.
     
  14. it is always a great way to keep reminding yourself that all of this is temporary and things are going to pass, It is always a good idea to fix your sleeping schedule step by step and keep waking up early in the morning at a regular pattern, If it is safe at your area, you may go for a walk if you feel extremely tempted to watch porn, try to limit your tv/movies time, Instagram, Youtube because there is a big chance you may come across material that will give you an urge to relapse. Just keep reminding yourself that you are capable to win this fight and accomplish this. Best of lucks in your journey.
     
  15. Yeah thanks! I just had a good time with friends this weekend so my mind was less occupied by BS which helps. Boredom plus loneliness at night make for a dangerous combination.
     
  16. Mine in general come when I am physically or emotionally weak. Even when I had a cold, I would tend to have urges. My wife works nights and I’m all alone most of the week. If I can’t sleep, it is harder to resist the urges.

  18. I was having big studying plans yesterday, but as soon as I woke up, I got this allergic attack and I was having runny nose, headache and fatigued. I took this anti histamine medication which made me even more fatigued, I was not able to study and I got this strong urges and unfortunately, everything went down.
     
  19. The urges hit strong at our most vulnerable states I believe that, yes. Whether physically or emotionally.
