    Just another one to add...

    You rarely see them, they're always in the privacy of their home, doing it!

    This kind of list is really damaging. There are plenty of people with social anxiety who are not PMO addicts and are going to get lumped in.
    And 3. being a super weirdo?? Often psychopaths seem completely normal and highly intelligent people can be seen as being abnormally weird. So I don't think that is going to help.

    Lots of people meet the criteria for 10! And are not PMO addicts.

    I think all of those bullet points just point to the condition of anxiety, but the question is what came first..the anxiety or the PMO? I'd say it's probably a mixture of both and all PMO does is help to keep the user in a perpetual state of anxiety because of the shame, guilt and social stigma of being a 'lonely w##ker' , but as like others have said, suffering from anxiety in itself may be an indicator but not necessarily an exclusive symptom or cause of PMO. There are plenty of people in this world that have the traits you disclosed which do not view porn, for example, many highly intellectual people are notably shy around others, docile, softly spoken, reclusive. Famous people such as Einstein and Tesla who I may add were around before the internet.

    If you guys don't accept or find these to be strong indicators, then congrats your not an addict. Do we have to fight over to see , who's a bigger addict?!?!?

    I see it often at 12 step meetings. It can be kinda funny.

    There was another thread on here where each person kept adding longer sentences of how long they had gone without sex from the previous poster. :D

    I know what you mean. We're all the same.

    If given a situation, do you act in a manner of strength, which makes you feel complete or do you go with a softer stance .?

    I guess, it the pmo doing it to you .. Pmo makes the brain weaker over a period of time ,and the prefrontal cortex too looses touch with action, . and the brain constantly goes into a dream state , absent mindedness , and lethargic , and indecisive and becomes really hard to think and process information. It starts to support you lesser and lesser and this causes you to loose confidence with yourself , self esteem flies of to the drain , you will start to think yourself as a dumbo slowly in small situation's and this only progresses and of course constant worrying , self pity and pathetic looser feeling , no growth in life, less maturity in character.

    These are sure signs , if you are addicted to pmo and in a advanced stage . please do a nice , honest , self assessment..

    Be selfish with yourself and save your life .
