Define an __init__ method for the form class. Pass the logged in userid to the form while initializing it, this will work with a model form.

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
    user_id = kwargs.pop('user_id')
    super(Add_Profile, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
    self.fields['follows'] = forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField(queryset=UserProfile.objects.filter(~Q(user_id=user_id)))

While initializing your form, you can pass user_id

address_form = Add_Profile(request.POST, user_id=request.user.id)
