Impact

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!

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’ve watched this documentary twice, once on my own and then with my fiancé, as he would always dismiss my views and alienate me for not accepting his use of porn. After he watched the first part, he asked me if there was more to watch, and he watched the rest saying that it was a real eye-opener and that when our children are old enough, we will watch the documentary with them.

I was impacted by this. I have been struggling with porn for almost 15 years. Watching this really gave me hope that I can and I will recover, so that I can live my life to fullest without negative feelings dragging me down.

Thanks to your website and podcast, I’m able to bring up the negative facts about pornography to people and give them actual accurate information. Rather than just saying, “porn is bad,” like before, I can give people the reasons why! I purposely bring up pornography in normal conversations and I’m not scared to do it cause now I have the actual facts, rather than just my opinion and it’s amazing!

Long story short, when my best friend told me that he’s been struggling to stay away from watching porn, I sent him the FTND documentary, Brain, Heart, World. Because he is a political adviser, educator, and lawyer, he felt disgusted and devastated to learn that porn fuels the demand for human sex trafficking. This was one big reason that made him stop watching porn.

Being a wife and choosing to fight alongside my husband, who’s celebrating 895 days in recovery, has been the hardest and most rewarding experience of our lives! Through this journey, we’ve celebrated and fought together as accountability partners, best friends, lovers, husband and wife, and now future parents!

We’ve learned so much. First, love can’t be clicked! It’s about real people, real love, and life! It’s about the journey and that we’re stronger fighting together! Also, it’s never going to be easy every day, it might not always be a victory–we are not perfect, and life isn’t perfect. It’s messy but it’s beautiful and it’s so worth it to fight! Consistency, accountability, and knowledge are some huge factors that helped his success along the way. Honestly, we wouldn’t be celebrating here today if it wasn’t for Fight the New Drug. Thank you, thank you, thank you for existing!

Hey, I appreciate what y’all are doing. You’ve really helped me reshape my mental narrative toward porn which has really helped me quit. Big thanks to all of you.

FTND is doing an amazing job to inform the public about the harms of porn. Keep up the good work!

I remember crying and trying to find a way to tell my parents. I was so worried about how they would react. After five minutes of sobbing in front of them, I said the words out loud that I vowed I would never say: “Mom, Dad, I’m addicted to pornography and I need your help.” The first thing my mother said was, “I am so proud of you.” The first thing my dad said was, “I have 35 years of experience with this, and I am ready to help. We can do this together. I love you.” There is nothing I believe in more than cultivating trusting relationships so that you have people to fall back on who love you perfectly and will help you always.

Just wanted to thank you for the impact that this organization had on my life (and many others, I’m sure). Even though it has only been a couple of clean weeks, I’ve never been happier. Keep up the amazing work that you do!

I have been binging your podcast recently. In fact, I listened to almost all of the episodes just this week, and in one of them, I heard it mentioned that FTND aims to be a global movement. This immediately hit me because I feel like I can be a voice in my community if I speak up.

Hi, I’m really excited to be part of this community since I watched your documentary. It is something that changed my view of life.
