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!

Thank you so very much for your podcast and the way you and your guests talk so frankly about their journeys with pornography. My husband has been living porn-free for the past year but struggled to get free for eight months before that. I spoke about our journey at a community event recently and used much of the information that I learned from FTND and from listening to your podcast. I know that pornography is hurting so many families. I really appreciate what you all are doing to help people know the truth. It is helping me to heal from the betrayal trauma. I know it is helping many who have been hurt in a variety of ways.

As a nurse, I really appreciate the scientific education from experts on the very real damage that porn does to the brain, as well as the hope for healing!

Dear FTND, today is my two year “soberversary”. Two years ago, I almost destroyed my marriage, my life was turned upside down, and my deepest shame and secrets came to light. Two years ago, I broke my wife’s heart, and began to face the things inside of me. Two years later, we are still rebuilding, still trying to mend the tears. But we are still here. Thank you FTND for promoting love, and connection over objectification and consumption.

It was good to see in the documentary how other people were affected by porn and that no one is alone in this fight.

Our public screening of Brain, Heart, World went fantastic! Great discussion afterwards and all that attended will definitely be speaking up now that they know and understand!

Incredible. A phenomenal, heart-wrenching look at the suffering and destruction porn brings to our lives—and the beauty that lies in life that we can experience when we break free. Thank you.

By understanding the physiological effects of pornography kids are far more likely to understand the harm that it can do. This is the best place to start with young people who hate to be told what they should or shouldn’t do—you cannot argue with the science.

I almost cried. It was really emotional, and I can definitely relate. I’m 26 years of age, and I have been porn-free for 5 days now. I’m super happy and my energy is less drained. Porn creates erectile dysfunction and objectifies women and I don’t want to be a part of it.

I have to admit, the urge to watch porn still comes to me sometimes. But I’m two years clean, and I could not be more content. Plus, the horror stories that I’ve read about the porn industry have made me realize just how horrible it all is. It is a disease that looks like a cure. I am a proud member of FTND!

As a teen, I watched porn all the way until I became pregnant with my first kid. My mother raised us to be aware of addiction and how it sneaks up on you and takes over your life. I knew there was something wrong with the fact that I always resorted back to watching porn. The fact that I couldn’t stop permanently wasn’t “normal,” so I went searching for research on the subject. That’s when I stumbled upon this huge movement called Fight the New Drug.

Once I read the stats on how people are sex trafficked for porn, and how porn is impacting our culture and love, I was devastated that I had been supporting. It pushed me to learn more, and that’s when I learned how porn affects our brains and pulls us into the addiction. I made it my mission to never let my porn addiction affect me again and to reach out to as many people as possible to educate and help others with their addiction to porn. I can PROUDLY say I have not watched porn in two years!! I am proud to be porn-free!

I’ve always had an incredible hatred for pornography. It ruined my body image, relationships, and stole pieces of my childhood that I’ll never get back. I’m so grateful for everyone at Fight the New Drug. Your work, dedication, and strength are much needed.

I LOVE the Consider Before Consuming podcasts. I used to struggle with pornography, and it ruined my relationships and my life. Fight the New Drug and this podcast are awesome because they don’t shame BUT they’re informative about the harms of pornography and what it can do to you.
