New here, need some help

This is exceedingly hard for me to write, but I hope I have come to the right location to get some advice/help. 

I'm a 23 year old male, and until last night, I was a virgin.  I had never, EVER, had a problem getting hard (read: rock fucking solid), although more recently I'd exclusively been using porn to get there.  Last night, the best I could do was a partial before I'd go flaccid again.  I am mentally, emotionally, and physically in agony right now.  I am so ashamed of my massive failure. 

I heard Gabe Deem on CBC not long ago, and to be honest, I scoffed at it, and thought never in a million years would I experience the same thing.  Now, I'm scared.  I'd been using porn as my primary source of sexual stimulation for the better part of 10 years, and I'm worried I'm going through exactly what he has described, with I guess the other possibility being just sexual anxiety. 

If someone has experienced similar things, or has advice to give, I'm all ears. 

edit: I think I posted this in the wrong spot, if anyone wishes to move it, feel free.

You probably posted in the wrong section but yeah porn addictions may lead to severe ED. You may also had some anxiety since it was your first time.. I guess. I had troubles achieving erection for weeks before finally doing it. ;)

You may experience less ED symptoms actually as sex will be a whole new stimulation for you.. But again, cutting out P and excess masturbation from the equation should be mandatory.  ;)

Read the main articles on YBPO and have a look at Gabe's videos on YT. Good luck man!
