My masturbation has been as bad as one a day (sometimes twice) to months of not (up to 70ish days) where I try and regain control. This over 3.5ish years. So as long as you'd expect to really change some brain chemistry.
I went through both extremes in horniness and chastity while coming off it. It was was a huge area of insecurity and I had a few nights I couldn't make anything happen (probably 2 months "sober" at that point with some girl.from tinder). I got Viagra from my family doc because he's a bro. He suggested however what I always suspected, it is very mental. I used it for a drunk hookup and it helped physically a bit, but more so as a mental.crutch. I could tell.myself "it's GOING to happen because pills".
A month or two later (so like, 3-4 months of no masturbation) I took the Viagra and had some dirty drunk sex at like half chub.
Now I hook up with two diff girls and I fuck both of them once or twice a week (no pill). It is definitely mental at this point, any of the issues I have.
You can make it, stop masturbating, lift, and never let the thoughts of how you may be affected prevent you from trying to have sex. That mental block is the worst obstacle.

It will take a lot longer for your brain to readjust than a week. Keep cutting back and report back in 6 months.

Start shootings testosterone and you can jack off 8-10 times and still have motivation to fuck chicks.

You need to set a goal, 90 days is a good start. I got started with the nofap community recently myself I'm not looking at porn ever again though.
Oh yeah and jacking off without porn is almost as bad as jacking off with porn so I'd recommend you stop that as well.

I don't really agree with your second point. When you masturbate with porn you get an intense dopamine hit and chaser effect that can sometimes last days after you even looked at it. Not to mention visual stimulation is more intense than just using your imagination. Without porn you still feel good from dopamine but it feels more "natural" and not intense, not to mention no chaser effect. I also don't believe it's healthy to hold in your cum for an extended amount of time (such as more than a few days), not to mention it can keep your mind clear when your balls are drained as you won't be focused on sex all the time.
I see your point but how can you just masturbate without imaging some porn scenes running throw your head? Rubbing your cock generates plenty of dopamine as it is and that gorilla grip will just desensitize you to real women. If you want to be a malaka/wanker (take your pick what word you want) it's on you friend. That imagination is a bunch of crap you're just conjuring up your own porn.
