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 wanted to reach out to y’all and let you know how grateful I am for your cause. I can’t thank you enough for introducing me to Fortify, responding to my message, and for all the help you give to others. I’ve been porn free since I first messaged you, and making this fight a part of my life, and my relationships with my family, my friends, and myself have done nothing but improve and give me overwhelming happiness! Thank you so much!
I stumbled upon your podcast on Spotify and it blew my mind! I saw porn for the first time when I was 13, and it became an unhealthy coping mechanism that sabotaged my college experience and a few of my relationships. I’ve tried to quit several times for different reasons and with different strategies, but none of them lasted that long. I had been going to therapy for the last year and ironically, I found your podcast just last week. The curriculum that y’all had, combined with my passion for anti-human trafficking, combined with therapy, and figuring out why I turned to porn to destress is LITERALLY rewiring my brain. I will browse the internet and hit mental blockages as I realize that the way my neurons are firing is in an objectifying manner and I’ll close whatever pages I’m on. Thank you for all that you guys are doing!
Recently, I came across FTND via Pinterest. Within the past few months, I experienced some gut-wrenching changes in my life that were due to my significant other’s porn addiction. I went from thinking porn is OK in small amounts and moderation to thinking it’s toxic and needs to be expelled from one’s life as soon as possible. I want to thank the brave people behind FTND. Thank you for being a loud voice for all those that believe porn is not ok at it TRULY does disrupt and destroy love–I am living proof of that.
I just wanted to say thank you SO much for having this page. I have been addicted to porn since I was ten, and it is something I have felt so ashamed of/never felt I would be able to stop being a slave to. I have been going through so much self-hatred because of it, and your page has truly helped me so much! I am a week and a half clean, and already feel so much better.
Thanks for making this movie. I am 37 and I was in my bubble during these years, suffering the cause and effects of porn. I wanted to talk about this, but I felt ashamed to talk publicly. Porn stole my childhood and my passion for this world. Everything was clouded by porn thoughts, irrespective of relationships. I am a meditation practitioner now and it helps a lot with making me more productive in many areas of my life. But the intensity of porn wiring my brain was huge and I still struggle a lot. I was looking for methods, motivation, and especially information to be helpful for me and finally, I found this documentary series. It’s so enlightening and also makes me feel happy to see the laughing faces at the end of each episode. Thanks again for being such wonderful human beings. Please spread the truth as much as you can, and I will do my part.
As a teenager, I’ve been working to rid my life of the harmful pornography that affects so many individuals my age. I’ve been using your page to gather up the motivation when I need it. I have already noticed a huge difference in my mood and energy. I appreciate the cause your organization represents. Thanks!
