    I've stopped watching porn and masturbating. I went thru a period of I guess detox from porn. I've been Horny getting erections. Now all of a sudden I don't feel horny like I did. Not able to hold an erection long. Could that be withdrawal symptoms from porn.

    That's why it's called rebooting. You have to shut yourself down for a bit before you fire up the new configuration.

  3. low sex drive is always related to low testoterion
    - hows your diet
    - hows your exercise or do you even exercice
    - how well do you sleep

    if you have a low sex drive its almost always one of those 3 out of balance

    I probably get 5 to 6 hours of sleep a night. I usually work 12 to 13 hours a day. And I haven't been exercising at all.

    Unless your job is physical, some intentional exercise is needed. You probably need like 2 more hours of sleep a night. Most people need 7-8.5 hours. Eating more fat and protein can help hormone levels.

    It could also just be temporary - i.e. a flatline.

    I hope that's all it is. I'm constantly on the go. But I think exercising would help a lot.

    Sounds like you entered a flatline. It is completely normal in the reboot experience. Everyone goes through it but the amount of time is different for everyone.
