So real that no one recognizes it as a disease or disorder?
Quote:In November 2016, the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT) issued a position statement on sex / porn addiction which states that AASECT "does not find sufficient empirical evidence to support the classification of sex addiction or porn addiction as a mental health disorder, and does not find the sexual addiction training and treatment methods and educational pedagogies to be adequately informed by accurate human sexuality knowledge. Therefore, it is the position of AASECT that linking problems related to sexual urges, thoughts or behaviors to a porn/sexual addiction process cannot be advanced by AASECT as a standard of practice for sexuality education delivery, counseling or therapy."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pornography_addiction
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) includes a new section for behavioral addictions, but includes only one disorder: pathological gambling.[14] One other behavioral addiction, Internet gaming disorder, appears in the conditions proposed for further study in DSM-5.[14] Psychiatrists cited a lack of research support for refusing to include other behavioral disorders at this time,[14].
Porn addiction is not a diagnosis in DSM-5 (or any previous version).[15][16][17] "Viewing pornography online" is mentioned verbatim inside DSM-5,[14] but it is not considered a mental disorder either.[15][16][17]
When the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) was being drafted, experts considered a proposed diagnostic addiction called hypersexual disorder, which also included a pornography subtype. But in the end, reviewers determined that there wasn't enough evidence to include hypersexual disorder or its subtypes in the 2013 edition.[15]
— Kirsten Weir, Is pornography addictive?
A number of studies have found neurological markers of addiction in internet porn users.,[10][18][19] which is consistent with a large body of research finding similar markers in other kinds of problematic internet users.[18]
The International Classification of Disorders 11 (ICD-11) rejected "pornography addiction". Specifically, the World Health Organization wrote "Based on the limited current data, it would therfore seem premature to include [pornography viewing] in ICD-11" [20]
