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!
Super thankful to find you guys during recovery. 15 days so far and I feel like I have an entirely new mindset. I’m more calm, focused, clear, and confident than even before. It’s the wildest thing: I could probably count on one hand the amount of times I even got 15 days porn-free in over 13 years. This time it’s for good and I’m not looking back. I have new habits in place and am running straight through this thing!
What a fantastic docuseries. Brain, Heart, World brought a smile to my face when I reached the end. I’m glad I stuck around to watch it from beginning to end. All of what was stated, I went through personally, and it began to put a strong halt in my life. This stuff creates a lot of problems in my life, just like other addictions would. I’m so glad I’m taking steps to take it out and rewire my brain for the better.
I just wanted to let you know that this page has helped me so much to fight my pornography addiction. I have been seriously addicted to porn since I was around 12, and this year I am 17. So I have been addicted to porn for 5 years, but I have been making vast improvements since following your Facebook page. I used to watch pornography daily, but I no longer do. I recently had a 1-week streak of no porn and am now wanting to achieve 3 weeks. Knowing this page exists and is behind to support me in ridding my addiction is a true blessing. Thank you so much.
There are so many horrible crimes associated with porn that people often don’t realize: sex trafficking, sexual violence, rape, etc. This culture is so intent on immediate gratification that we don’t see what trauma is going on behind the screen. Let’s choose real love and fight to help others break free from porn addiction. This podcast and the incredible message this organization spreads are so vital in our world today. Thank you for pioneering this movement. I’m honored to be a part of it.
I just want to thank you for continuing to educate and bring awareness to the effects of pornography. In a message I sent you several years ago, I thought my husband had been without porn for many years only to find out later that he had not stopped his porn use, just kept it quiet. I feel that I would have left this marriage or be in the process had it not been for the amazing articles you continue to post about how porn affects the mind, etc. Your efforts to fight this drug are paying off and you have saved my marriage and I’m sure many others because of it. My husband may still be in the throes of his addiction but he is fighting. I will be here by his side as he fights, wielding my own sword. True love is worth fighting for. Thanks again.
As a 36-year-old man, I have been habitually binging porn for most of my life. I can’t overturn the contribution I have made to its demand, but I’d like you to know that your message is true and needs to be so much louder. I’m trying to make this year about health, and I’m abstaining from pornography from now on with great incentive from the stories FTND has publicized. Porn is really the last unaddressed problem in my life, and it may have been standing between me and meaningful relationships this whole time.
No amount of money will balance the books of my consumption, but if it helps to amplify the signal for others and hopefully break the habit for others, then it’s well spent.
I wanted to send a quick message just to thank y’all for all you do. I am a high school teacher and this is the second year I have assigned your Brain, Heart, World documentary to my students. They really enjoyed it and learned a lot. One of my students told me today how passionate she has now become about this issue and has started having conversations with her own family and friends about it. Definitely some new Fighters out there for sure! So from one Fighter to another, thank you for the work you do. Know that it definitely does make a difference and you are definitely accomplishing your mission to educate about the harmful effects of pornography to the world! Thank you again.
Recently, I was walking down the street in my city, and I heard this couple read my FTND shirt out loud as I walked by. So I turned around and smiled at them and struck up a conversation. They were a married couple, probably in their thirties, and they were just genuinely curious about what an 18-year-old was doing with a shirt like mine on. So I happily shared my whole story about how I was addicted to porn from 5th grade until sophomore year of high school, and how I’ve been walking in freedom since then. I shared about its connection to trafficking and the dangers of shame. It really just ended up being a really cool conversation for all of us!
I would like to thank you for the wonderful resources and content available on your Facebook page. This is the most helpful page I have seen this year on Facebook. Thanks for all the tremendous work you produce. I can see it is doing a lot of good to those who follow you. Best wishes for the future.
