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!

Hello, Fight the New Drug. I’ve been following your page and content for a while now. I think your content is really great and has helped me learn more about my habit of compulsive behavior toward porn. Shame was really taking a big toll on my mental health, but after I got to hear what others have gone through and hearing they gained confidence over time, I’ve been really inspired. Thank you, and continue the great work.

Very informative about the link between pornography, human trafficking, violence, and objectifying others. Good explanation of how porn impacts relationships negatively, especially when illustrated by real-life examples.

Thank you for everything you do to raise awareness about this. As a previous porn addict myself, it grieves me to see how much porn is taking over the minds of people in the world today. Even though it’s been a few years since I stopped watching porn, I can still feel the damage from it today. Every day. So, thank you for fighting against the new drug.

This morning, about 30 minutes ago, I called one of my community leaders and confessed to him my porn struggle, which helped me. I’ve never thought before about how watching porn does not make me a bad person. That really helped me to think about it, and it’s thanks to you guys. I’ve always thought that if I watch it, I am a bad person, but I realize that I am a good person but I’ve got a nagging, annoying struggle that’s always with me. There’s a difference.

Thank you so much for what you do. You guys really are pros. I wish I had known that before all of this, but thank you so much.

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.

Porn really messed me up. I used to be focused on my goals as a student, and I connected well with my peers, but all of that went wrong after viewing porn and getting hooked. I’ve lost my self-esteem, I don’t socialize, and I am always so lonely. Every time I go without porn for some time, I regain energy, but I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve relapsed. I’m not giving up though, I’ll keep up the fight.

I love what you stand for. My boyfriend and I are currently fighting his porn addiction together and I’m so excited for our shirts to come. This has been an overwhelming, anxiety-filled time for me, and being able to use your website and information has been so helpful.
