Is porn and masturbation the cause of my ED?

Background:
I am in my mid 20's. I lost my virginity when i was 17 with my ex girlfriend at the time. Which is about the same age i started watching pornography and masturbation. Even having a sex partner at that time, it did not stop me from watching porn and masturbate. It became a habit of masturbation of one to two times a day, sometimes three. My sex drive was quite high. I get aroused easily without the touch of a woman in the same bed. I also get a turned on in the club and sometimes randomly in public. I get hard almost every morning. I have never had a wet dream in my life, although i do occasionally have sex dreams. My erections were stiff and strong. I have never slowed down or stopped my porn/masturbation addition until now.

The problem:
I had sexual relationship with a girl about six weeks ago and my penis erected and responded like it should. I had no concerns. Two weeks later, I had a different girl in my bed. I wasn't aroused at all. I did some work and tried to get it hard myself but I couldn't get a full erection. It was only half hard and bendable. The erection stopped the second we stop stroking it. The size was reduced by about 20%. Sex is almost horrible and embarrassing. I still get hard in the mornings but they are weak and small and with the duration of walking distance from my bed to the door. I have not had a normal full hard on for four weeks now. Sad to say, I don't get turned on at all now. I have to force a "half" erection if i want to orgasm during masturbation.I did not stop internet porn and masturbating at the time. Instead, i thought it would some how help me bring my sex drive back up.

I have just diagnosed  myself with ED after surfing the internet looking for solutions to my problem. I need to have someone confirm with me that this is what I have. And if it is, can i really cure ED if i prohibit myself from porn and masturbating for 2-3 months?

sounds like you're affected by too much masturbating to porn.
