First Attempt at Reboot

I feel like this has been a long time coming but I'm finally going to try and reboot. I have been PMO'ing everyday since probably 7th grade and I am now almost 22. I am just now starting to get over my HOCD struggles which haan't exactly helped this process by any means but has been my main motivation as I need to get my life back. I've only had one serious girlfriend ever and that was 4 years ago. I've had sex with around 20 different girls but I really started to notice my PIED after I couldn't get it up around a year ago. It had happened a few other times before but those were mainly just because I was drunk. I just kinda shrugged off the experience and didn't talk to that girl again and everything went back to normal and I continued to PMO everyday. Then this past semester it happened again but after it happened again it happened a time after and then another time afterer and etc. I think it happened about 5 times in total over the course of 4 months and it was terrible. I believe that porn has singlehandily ruined my life and my sex life and I'm really hoping this reboot works. I never had an overwhelming desire to seek girls for other than sex because I just always had porn. Of course, I could never turn down a reallt attractive girl but it was hard to form that connection with a woman and I believe that's due to porn. I've been craving that connection so bad lately which has just made me feel really lonely and the funny thing is that I knew in the back of my mind that this was going to happen if I didn't stop. I'm on day 5 of nofap and I'll be keep everyone updated. Right now, I just feel kinda depressed and I'm just scared I'm never gonna find that girl that'll make me happy over everything but I'm hoping nofap can reverse all of this. Does anyone have any tips? Or has anyone else felt this way? Please share your stories

 

Yeah man porn really does suck, I don't know I feel I was ever really addicted but it was just kinda part of my day and I didn't really think anything of it. But now I could look at a picture of a half naked girl and not be able to get it up unless I was in the process of masturbating. I just can't wait for the day this all goes away. I'm on day 6 and I do feel better and I was able to get it up this morning just from imagining sex in my mind so that was a big break through. I'm hoping my process continues but thanks my brothers this place makes me feel a lot better.
