    Hello guys!

    I feel this is really going in the right direction.
    Even though only 9 days, I feel really positive about this!

    When I have relapsed before it has been when im trying to sleep. When I´m am awake so far
    it have been not to big of a problem. When I get an urge on day/evening I just go do something or just watch some video about "quiting porn topic" or whatever.

    The problem comes when I lay there in bed, and when the urges come then it´s reeeeally hard not to fap. I can be extremly tired like yesterday. Eventully after 2 hours or so with your brain practicly screaming fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap and I will let you sleep it gets really hard not to do it. I refused to do it yesterday and the result was 3-4 hours of sleep. I used to take a fap and then fall asleep, and it worked sometimes so I guess my brain is used to it.

    Do you guys have any tips for when going to bed? I mean I dont really want to activate myself becouse I want to sleep. But maybe I have to? Just go up for a while and then try sleep again?

    Worth mentioning is that I have a really hard time to fall asleep in general. Usually takes atleast 30min off laying in the bed.

    Best regards!

    Those are the worst, and yeah I recommend what the person above me said. Plus What I do is i tuck my boner between my thighs while in fetal position and concentrate on wiggling my toes. It has definitely helped me kill the urges and i am able to sleep comfortably since I started. Stay strong bro!

    Exercise! Get up and do a wall sit or pushups!
    Or you can do pushups right in your bed!

    It'll tire you out and repress your urges.
