Sleep Fapping (Argh!!)

Maybe handcuffs or something could help (no joke)? I have never had this problem nor thought that it could be possible. The worst so far for me was wet dreams, though they have dramatically decreased in frequency.

Or maybe you just have to continue nofap and don't worry about this thing, it will disappear after some time?

 

It's strange I never heard this before or even think it's possible.

 

Thing is you aren't fully in control of yourself yet. I just started learning about the sub-conscious so I may not know so much about it but looks like PMOing is still an urge within you and according to Freud's psychoanalytic theory, the subconscious is really holding your deep sexual desires that is generally not socially acceptable. I feel that you need to detest and abhor PMO even more than usual. Gain more control of yourself by meditating 20 minutes before you go to sleep and never use your phone when you go to sleep. It is a huge trigger and always wastes your time like anything. Plus, try to collect all of the reasons why you hate PMO with a passion and tell yourself that in front of a mirror before going to bed. I have no experience in this field but attempting my tips has no side-effects or harm so try doing that.

 

Finally someone else experiencing what i have! Sleep fapping is totally real! I lost my previous streak of 150 days because of this and at the time, i didnt know how to explain it! It nearly happened to me the other night, i starting touching myself but realised and managed to go back to sleep!

 

I mean if it's your subconscious at work you could try listening to no-PMO subliminals before bed, no idea though. I used to have something similar happen to me back when I first started NoFap but it faded slowly although I think I sometimes have dreams that Im MOing and I wake up real spooked.

 

I can feel your frustration. After you consciously make the commitment to stop fapping, it seems as if your body is just...sabotaging you. That is super frustrating, I agree.

First of all, you don't have to worry about convincing me that this is happening. I believe I've read multiple accounts of this happening, although it hasn't happened to me personally. I have had a dream that I was PMO'ing and woke up ejaculating before...I think that's the closest I can come to relating to this problem.

If you can start working on forgiving yourself for what you do during your "unconscious" state, in my opinion that would be a great start. This is out of your control. Blaming yourself for something that you can't necessarily control isn't helping you at all.

Honestly, I think this is the best advice I can give you for now and I hope it helps. I know frustration is high, but please stay patient with yourself. This takes time and a lot of patience. You can do this!

 

Dam that sleep fapping!

 

Bro same thing happening with me from 2013 and this is the only reason I relapse every time and I stopped watching porn completely, I am depressed because of this. If you find a way to stop this please help.

 

Maybe wearing some kind of gloves in bed might work..

Might be a dumb idea, but thought I'd mention it!

 

No this doesn't work, I have the same problem, but not watching porn half awake, just fapping. I wrap cloth around both of my hands, like a boxing gloves, so its hard to grip, among other things but it doesn't work. It seems you just have to get strong mentally and keep going. Its a straight up battle.

 

Just happened to me last night again, usually it happens an hour after I fall asleep, around 11 or so. I will post here, with any updates, if any.

 

Bro I face same problem, suppose I go to sleep at 10 then it may happen at 11 or 11:30, I don't know why this is happening.
But I think you can try sleep hypnosis or if you know hindi language then you can try yoga nidra. Search these words on YouTube.

 

Start sleeping with someone

 

It is normal this, many years of doing it some of the habit will be remains on the subconcious.
I hear is less with the time.
