i need help,

i masturbate uncontrollably at times. Its right when i am about to go to bed and I get the urge and it just doesnt go away. I want to get to sleep but how to i suppress the urge. I am in my bedroom and whenever i get there my hormones just have to do it. Its like when drug dealers "get a jones". How do I suppress this urge and get to sleep? I am just laying in bed trying not to do it but I just cant. Half the time it works and half the time it doesnt. I am weak I know

Would suggest you read the piece on the home page about masturbation. Basically, you don't "supress" the urge, but rather replace it. That's too simple an answer, but a start. Check the many posts and articles on this site for ideas. Also, some professional counseling visits (Christian sex addiction counselor) would be a great boost for you. Mike Genung outlines the steps to take on this site. Also, http://www.newlife.com; pureintimacy.org (Focus on the Family); others. It can be overcome, but is difficult, as many here will attest. But, you *can* do it... It's not impossible, as it has seemed to most of us, many times...
