Tired boners

[SatCam]

Tired boners seem to be a mostly undocumented phenomena. I did a few google searches and found that I'm not the only one who experiences this. On days when I'm especially tired, typically when I get less than 6 hours of sleep, I'll get "tired boners" during the course of my day. For example, if I'm at work and I sit down for a few minutes, I'll start to doze off. When I snap out of it, I'll have a boner. Also, when driving home after a long day, sitting in traffic I'll start to get a bit sleepy... and then I'll realize I have a boner.

Just a few minutes ago, I was lying down reading a book and I closed my eyes for a few minutes and when I woke up, I had a boner. I've noticed I've been experiencing this since I was 16/17 years old.

Anyone else know what I'm talking about? The erections are completely independent of sexual stimulus and always occur when I'm tired and seated or lying down.

I get that too -- especially after being jet-lagged. It's probably caused by the same reasons the body gives us "morning wood".

I thought this was gonna be can't get it up/limp dick. Can't remember having these. But do remember sometimes when I thought I might have been to tired for sex. Haveing great sex at times. So that is sorta the same I guess.
