    Hi All,

    I had begun my nofap journey about a week back, although I have relapsed today (after about 8 days); not to porn but when I woke up, I was aroused and began masturbating till ejaculation (to a thought of a girl I know). I have completely stopped porn consumption and viewing explicit images about 2 weeks now and am quite successful in that (except for occasional viewing of music videos that may contain stimulating dance like girls twerking).

    Though I'm struggling in the area of arousal during sleep; for me the first few days of nofap are fine but after that, things get difficult as I start to get aroused by basic stimuli (like to a thought of a girl I have a crush on). And the most difficult part of the day is during early morning when I wake up (the temptation to masturbate is very high during that part of day). I hope some one can advise me in this regard, so I can better control my urges of masturbation.

    Thanks

    Welcome! I'm glad you're here.

    Getting turned on by this thing or that is normal, don't sweat it. If you don't actually DO anything -- if you just move your thoughts on to something else, you will be just fine. That's what I have learned to do. If something comes to mind that's not helpful -- or even if I brush myself a certain way (you know what I mean) -- I just try to think of something very specific, like elephants or light bulbs! I know it sounds silly, but believe me, it works. (Unless elephants are your thing!)

    And when you wake up, just get up right away. Get right to whatever you need to do. If you make a habit of this, you will be fine.

    Thanks buddy. That was helpful, i think its best to just get up out of bed as soon as one is awake so there is no temptation at all.

    Welcome here!
    As Vamp correctly said, jump out of bed, and allow me to suggest taking a pee immediately as you wake up. There is a close relation between erections and a full bladder. Once this is done, just move on!

    Greta to have you here.

    Wow Jomo, that really did work; tried it this morning. As soon as I was up, I had urges but I went to pee and when I was back everything was just under control. I also read about the correlation between a full bladder and erection and seems like its a strong correlation.
