Introduction
Yes, I know I get erections at night. They are supposed to occur in my sleep. But……
Reality
I seem to be awakened at night by some of these erections. Just this morning, I got up about 12:30 AM and could not believe the “stick” I had in my PJs. I carefully got out of bed, visited the lavatory and crawled back into bed, still very firm.
Later-on this morning, about 4:30 AM, sure enough, a metal rod down in my groin. This time, being in Day 7 of SR, I was really tempted to rub-it-out and get more rest. But I persevered and when it subsided a little bit, I decided to don my SD Ultra Pro Carbon “chastity cup”. I immediately felt better since I couldn’t even touch it. I crawled back into bed, and the erection was finally starting to subside.

Analysis
What is it about these NPT erections that can wake me up? I supposed that many guys just sleep through them? Or do they? And how many do I/they have after all? I believe I have at least a few more during the night that I am not even aware of. Thank goodness for that! Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to sleep at all!
Information Box
Here is some interesting information on this subject that I found on “Netwellness.org”
“Erections are considered a normal part of sleep physiology in men. As a matter of fact, the absence of erections during sleep in a man with impotence can suggest an underlying physical problem (and not emotional problem) as the cause of their impotence.
Erections typically occur during dream sleep, also known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. REM sleep usually occurs at the end of each sleep cycle throughout the night. These cycles are roughly 90-120 minutes in duration and, with each successive cycle, the amount of REM sleep gets longer. Thus, we experience most of our dream sleep late in the night with the longest block of REM sleep occurring right before we awaken in the morning. This explains why we often remember our dreams when we wake up.
It is quite normal to awaken at the end of each sleep cycle, as we are coming out of dream sleep. And since erections typically occur during dream sleep, it is a normal and common phenomena for men to awaken from sleep with an erection.
In the context of the above background, it is unlikely your erections are waking you up at night. What is much more likely is that you are frequently awakening from dream sleep with an erection and happen to notice this. This would be considered normal and nothing to worry about.”

So, there I have it! What I have been experiencing seems to be completely normal. These NPT erections come like clockwork every night, don’t they? I think we all would be disappointed if they didn’t, even for one night, right guys?
Touche’.
