A COLLECTION OF GRATITUDE & IMPACT CURATED BY FIGHT THE NEW DRUG
Since 2009, we've given visibility to research and personal accounts demonstrating how pornography can negatively impact individuals, relationships, and society. Through this grassroots movement, millions of people have found hope and freedom. We couldn't do this without Fighters like you!

I appreciate your work guys, I do to struggle to stop. But thanks to you guys, I feel free & happy. Some days are a struggle but I remind myself that I can overcome this sickness know as porn.

I wrote you in February in the thick of my hurt after my husband came clean about a porn addiction he’s had for seven of the ten years we’ve been together. I was completely shattered and devastated to my core. I’m writing to you today to say how much our lives have changed in the last couple of months. I completely gave up my role of trying to fix him, and I just loved him through it. I saw him for him and not for the porn problem, and now things couldn’t be better between us. He’s sought out accountability weekly, and he’s excited about the future. I don’t feel like I could know my husband better than I do right now. Our communication is raw and honest, but packed with love and fight. I’m falling for him all over again. So thank you for what you do. Thank you for loving us all through this–you are making a difference.

I've been fighting and losing on my own for so long. Last night I had the courage to write a letter and tell my mom about my struggle. Porn has ruined so much of me and I just wanted to say thanks because your guide on how to talk to a loved one helped me finally make that push and she reacted better than I expected and I think it'll really help me turn things around

I recently decided to wear my PKL shirt to O'Hare airport. I immediately noticed lots of staring, which is expected when you're wearing a shirt that has the word "porn.” A few people stopped me to tell me they loved my shirt, many smiled and pointed. It was refreshing to see people reacting and hopefully having meaningful conversations after seeing it. The best part was while entering the aircraft, a flight attendant greeted us and after reading my shirt, her face lit up! She loved the message and had her coworker come see it as well. During the flight, the flight attendant offered me a complimentary beer "for wearing such an awesome shirt."
By supporting FTND, you aren't just giving your money to another nonprofit. You are provided with a tool to spread an empowering, world-changing message. By wearing a shirt with the 3 simple words "Porn Kills Love," I was able to raise awareness, start conversations for many, and pass the message along.

Great documentary! We watched with our teens. It was educational, eye-opening and based on solid data. Thank you! I have recommended it multiple times to other parents of teens.

Thank you, FTND. Now I'm in this stage where even if I want to watch porn and am all alone, I still don't watch it. I hate porn now. There are a lot of beautiful things in the world to enjoy besides porn. Now I have bigger goals in my life and I'm working hard to be whatever I always dreamed for myself. Thank you so much for your articles and tweets. Thank you and I love you. Cheers!

As someone who has suffered from pornography addiction, I was instantly in support when I found FTND on Instagram. Your page gives a voice to the unspoken narrative that affects millions so strongly. That led me to discover this podcast which dives into detail of how consuming pornography derails your life and relationships in a multifaceted way. This podcast gives me hope for the future as you continue to reach others and change lives. Thank you for being the voice.

Thank you for what you’re doing in the world!

Keep up the good work. You are doing great work raising awareness.

After watching Brain, Heart, World, I think that I understand a little bit more about how much pornography distorted my relationships and my goals in life to be happy and have an authentic life.

I just wanted to thank you guys for all you do! Both my husband and I grew up in very religious families, and talking about porn was always a taboo conversation filled with a lot of shame. My husband has struggled with porn since junior high, and since we’ve been married, I’ve never known how to talk to him about it and see how he’s doing. But because of your page and all the amazing work you do, it’s slowly given me the courage to have an open dialogue with my husband about it. It’s made our relationship so much better because we can actually communicate! He feels safe being able to come to me when he feels those urges, and I am so much more understanding of the struggle that he’s constantly facing. So thank you, thank you, thank you! The awareness that you are sharing is invaluable.

I always look forward to the next podcast of ‘Consider Before Consuming’—this is truly a great initiative. The information, the stories, and the lessons learned here are so helpful. Thank you guys for all that you do!

I’ve waited a long time for something like this to be on the market. I love seeing something so important be broken out and talked about over social media and other mediums. I’m so excited for all future episodes! Very raw with the perfect balance of teaching! Thank you!
