A few days ago I joined a Gmod server. It had an addon that removes your 3rd person from vehicles and adds realistic first person. I wouldn't have a problem with that if it hadn't made all my pills first person! Can anyone tell me the position of the folder where the addons you get from servers are stored or the addons name and position?

If your server status give a 192.168.X.X ip then you are hosting a lan server.
Try to open console and use sv_lan 0 command (if you want to host over the internet) else sv_lan 1 for lan server.
If you host an internet server you can look for your external ip here. Thats the one your friends have to connect to.
Your port forwarding looks correct. You configured that the ports 27000-27015 are forwarded to the computer with the 192.168.x.x ip adress in your local network. However this 192.168.x.x has to be your local ip.
To see your local ip adress press the windows button or click on the start button (in your windows taskbar) and type cmd and press enter so a commandline will open. There you have to type ipconfig /all which gives you several network information. The important part is red marked (it's a german cmd here) the marked ip is the one you've to forward to.
Attention!
If you have a dynamic ip it is possible that your local ip change after you restart your computer which means that you would have to change the port forward to your current ip so better use a static local ip if your work with port forwarding.
This can happen if your keybindings get messed up. Try resetting your keys from the options menu.
Failing that, delete the Steam\steamapps\common\GarrysMod\garrysmod\cfg and Steam\steamapps\<your username>\garrysmod\garrysmod\cfg folders.
As a last resort, uninstall and reinstall Garry's Mod.

In the following path,
%STEAMROOT%refers to your Steam install location, eg.C:/Program Files/Steam, and%STEAMUSER%refers to the name that you use to log into Steam. (These aren't environment variables Steam sets, so you'll have to replace them yourself.)The install location for Garry's Mod addons is
%STEAMROOT%/steamapps/%STEAMUSER%/garrysmod/garrysmod/addons.
