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!
Thank you. Thank you for being a voice for this issue. Thank you for calling it what it is: a real issue. Thank you for not making light of it, like it’s a joke, like they do in the movies or on TV. Thank you for telling the truth, for being vulnerable, and for having the courage to say this is a problem. Just THANK YOU!
This is such an important topic. People are either ignorant of the problems or it’s the elephant in the room no one wants to talk about. But once we release the shame and start conversations, then we can win this war. Porn has already destroyed so many relationships, including two of my marriages. Since I’ve been listening to these podcasts and supporting Fight the New Drug, I have the confidence to speak out. Young men have confessed to me that they have issues with real women after growing up on internet porn. People don’t realize what they can be doing to themselves and others. It’s time we speak up like we do with other drugs. Thank you Fight the New Drug for all of this great information and your platform.
I was in a sexually abusive relationship for a year and a half and I know a lot of my ex’s sexually violent tendencies had to do with his porn habit. This page gives me hope and makes me feel like I’m not crazy for feeling like porn is a problem. Thank you for providing a safe space for everyone!
Wow, this docuseries was truly awakening. I’ve tried and tried many times to quit porn, and after relapsing a couple of days ago, this was the motivation that I needed. I accept that what triggers me won’t go away, things won’t change straight away and there’s still the possibility of relapsing again; I have to be aware of that. But when one sees clearly that things do get better and the clouds do part eventually, it’s very motivating to know that there’s more to life than this. Beyond pornography is a better, more rewarding, and more fulfilling life. Thank you for making this documentary. I will work even harder to kick this out of my life!
I just want to say thank you to the people at FTND. I started watching porn at a young age and even got caught multiple times, but couldn’t stop watching it. I realized I was addicted when I was 14, but was never motivated enough to do something about it. Watching your videos on IGTV really helped me find motivation to give up porn. From sex trafficking to how it affects relationships, I realized how much damage I was doing to myself. But after knowing that, I just started feeling bad about myself. That’s when your Brain, Heart, World series came in handy. I was able to see all the people who had struggled with porn and could relate to their stories. I didn’t feel alone anymore. I’m truly inspired by FTND. Thank you so much for taking a stand on this platform. Groups like this are going to change the world.
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.
I felt compelled to reach out and give a huge thank you to everyone at this organization. I’ve been dealing with a porn addiction for a while now and just recently started getting real help to try and recover. I came across the Consider Before Consuming podcast and have been going through episodes over the past several weeks. It’s really helped continue to open my eyes to the problem and made me feel not as alone. The episode with Alex especially touched me as I felt like he was telling a version of my story. Please keep up the awesome work and if there is anything I could ever do to help I wouldn’t think twice!
I’ve followed you guys for a long time and it has made me more comfortable speaking out against something I never agreed with but was scared to speak on. So thank you for your account and the hard work you do!
My husband told me he was an addict, and I became aware of the harms of porn from that. When I found your site, it helped me understand more and more about these harms and it motivated me to become a Fighter myself. I always wanted to be a teacher, but I now know that I want to be a health teacher to help inform young students and their parents about the harms of pornography.
