*While "sex addiction," "love addiction," and "pornography addiction" are commonly used to describe perceived loss of control over sexual behaviors, it is important to note that these terms do not correspond to recognized diagnoses in any widely accepted diagnostic manuals such as the DSM-5-TR or ICD-11. The DSM-5-TR (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition, Text Revision) is primarily used in the United States, developed by the American Psychiatric Association (APA). The ICD-11 (International Classification of Diseases, 11th Revision) is published by the World Health Organization (WHO) and serves as the international standard for diagnosing diseases and health conditions, including mental health disorders.
