The porn issue needs to be handled. I didn't go quite to the extreme you did with it, each of us develop different personal "fetishes" through the porn, but that's the typical progression. Needing more and more extreme dopamine rushes from the porn, to get the same feeling. Eventually, you're so far removed from reality, that you lose the ability to be turned on and gain an erection from a real female. It's serious.
It's taken me like two years of vigilance to just start getting morning woods back, starting to slightly gain erections in regards to normal females at times. Even now, after all this time, my erections aren't 100% back to normal. That causes a degree of worry about being intimate with a woman, naturally, the worry about not having a full erection capability yet. It takes a very long time to heal from this damage from porn.
My advice is to take it very seriously. Educate yourself at one of the most well-known sites on the subject, by Dr. Gary Wilson: yourbrainonporn.com . EHPRA may, or may NOT deal with this, for this a direct approach is best. I too have suffered from this for years, I know what you're feeling. Personally, I'd recommend you use the Overcome Pornography Addiction sub as soon as possible vigorously to get out of this disastrous state. Because, even after the porn addiction is gone, the damage will take a very long time to heal. I've had lingering issues with fapping, that was more of an issue for me then porn. But, both can take a long time to remedy sadly. Especially if you've been doing them for a long time, and how young you started. Learn what you can from that site I gave you, let me know if you have any questions about the journey. I'll do what I can. This stuff is modern-day poison for men...it should be illegal for the damage it causes in so many ways. It's going to be horrible with this VR crap coming too. I'm so worried for future men.
All the best to you, that's what I can offer you, given first hand experience with this stuff for years. You can climb out of this gutter. Trust me. I promise.
Man, I know all the damage porn does and I still can't get rid of it. Just watched porn early in the morning earlier. It's a really bad habit to get rid off. How long have you been off porn?
