Is it normal for sex drive to go down at 18?

Back in my early teens, if I thought about sex at all I would get hard. Man, I miss those days. Nowadays, it's a lot tougher. I've never actually been with a girl, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get it up or something. I stopped watching porn months ago. I almost never get randomly hard except sometimes in the mornings. If I just masturbate less will that help? Or maybe do aerobic exercise?

    I'm 36.
    It happens to a guy some times in life for a short period, sometimes for reasons we can't find out, other's with a reason. Don't panic:)
    It will happen till you get a stable life than it will stop. It might happen for a month in two years or so or just once in your adult life.
    Mortgage, bills, unemployment or several psychological things or even a simple unpleasant discussion with your parents or girlfriend its enough. In your age I had it for a couple of months coz of my studies. After the school year finished all come to normal.
    After my wife left I had another for I don't know how many months again. I was left with my baby to raise and educate alone with 20 years old.
    Probably half a dozen of times till today.
    If you become anxious and nervous its worst. If you don't care ends sooner.
    I know its not nice if you have a girlfriend and a normal sex life but she must understand.
    What the hell, we are not machines! She can wait!
    Hope it ends fast.

    Just dont worry about it. When the time comes Im sure you'll be able to get it up. If you constantly think about it then that can be your worst enemy. Just go with it and enjoy it and Im sure everything will be fine.
