    OCD or symptoms resembling OCD are not a common side effect of porn addiction. You should speak with a local mental healthcare professional.

    You can also just try quitting porn (going through NoFap's parameters) to see how it impacts you. There's only one way to find out. I'd suggest if you have OCD to do so under the guidance of a local mental healthcare professional.

    Yeah...I agree with Alexander. Porn addiction would be a side effect of the OCD, not the other way around. I’ve recently been diagnosed with ocd. I sure wish I would have been a lot sooner in my life.

    That’s all up to you and what your goals are, my man. The counter is just a number for your current streak. It doesn’t project your overall progress...don’t be afraid to reset it if you feel you need to. :)
