Dealing with strong urges at night?

    I have my blockers In place, and have a system during the day that eliminates triggers, save for freak occurances, but I don't know how to deal with them at night. Last night I was woken up by an urge and was awake for an hour before I decided to rub one out to end it. I was groggy and my willpower was nonexistent, the only thing keeping me from masturbation for an hour was laziness, I didn't want to clean my sheets or get up out of bed. Any advice would be appreciated.

    Be strong! And do exercise when the urges appears... I pass for the same situation... But I overcame it, exercising every time I felt urges

    Thanks, perhaps doing a few pushups could have saved me.

    Mentally imagine the urges as something else. I would picture hungry wild dogs inside a cage, and I held the key to the cage. Letting those dogs out would have bad consequences! Ride out the urges, it's a living hell for a while but will calm down if you are patient.
