Sexsomnia (sleep masturbation)
I masturbate in my sleep every single night. It does not seem to be triggered by any particular events and is a regular occurring. Nothing seems to work. What are the solutions to this? How can it be controlled?
Edit: it happens whether I'm tired or not. No amount of exercise, abstinence or being preoccupied changes the situation.
