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!
Hey, guys! Four days ago, I reached my 1-year mark in recovery. I can honestly say that abstaining from porn has been the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I have my life back! And while I can say my life isn’t perfect, this recovery period has given me the tools I need to embrace every challenge that comes my way! I no longer need to resort to porn to numb my feelings and escape my problems, I found the strength within me to fight and keep moving forward no matter what, and it’s so worth it! I think clearer, I sleep better, my relationships are amazing, and I no longer look at women as objects and can actually look them in the eyes without feeling guilty and wondering what they would say.
Fighting this is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I’m proud to be a Fighter!
I’m without words. I sobbed. Everything negative that was shared by these individuals in the docuseries is prevalent in my own life. I can’t believe I never realized how much of my life has been wasted watching this. It doesn’t make me happy and hasn’t ever made me feel that way. What will make me happy is finally kicking this habit. I know that to be a fact. I can’t wait to watch the next one.
Thank you, FTND. Now I’m in this stage where even if I want to watch porn and am all alone, I still don’t watch it. I hate porn now. There are a lot of beautiful things in the world to enjoy besides porn. Now I have bigger goals in my life and I’m working hard to be whatever I always dreamed for myself. Thank you so much for your articles and tweets. Thank you and I love you. Cheers!
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.
Thank you so much for everything that you do. Four months ago, my husband confessed to a pornography addiction after I caught him secretly watching porn. I’ve used so many of your resources to educate both of us (especially myself) to help us navigate this very difficult situation. It’s definitely not easy, but this community & others sharing their stories have helped me more than I can put into words.
Hey! I don’t know if you will read this, but I wanna tell you how much you helped me with your Facebook posts. For the first time in almost 10 years, I succeeded in not doing a single search for porn. Thanks!
Porn affected my life in so many ways I never could’ve imagined. It affected my social life and relationship with my parents. There were times when I thought I’d overcome my addiction, but whenever I became depressed or things came up, I always found myself crawling back to porn. I was introduced to your page by a friend and started following on social media. I read the stats and started to understand how porn was not only affecting me, but the world too. I made a solid commitment to never view porn again. My life slowly began to turn around. I started to do better in school and was able to focus on my social life. I was happier. The greatest change of all was when I met the most amazing girl who is now my wife. I have been sober for over two years. If you’re fighting right now, keep fighting. If you haven’t started, start now. It will change your life. Don’t get discouraged. It takes time. You can do it!

I realized today that it’s been about four years since I heard about FTND. That’s around 1,460 days porn freeeeeeee! I just have to say that I’m so grateful for the education and power your organization has given me. Before learning about FTND, I had attempted to stop turning to porn for about eight years, with no success. The education and community are what empowered me. I just wanted to share this, and thank each of you for what you do for the movement. Freakin’ love each of you!
I used to struggle a lot with my addiction to pornography. I started exercising after doing a little research on what porn does to your brain. It was devastating. I still fell almost every month, but I want to be completely free, so watching this helps 110%. Thank you so much for making this documentary! You wonderful humans are saving so many lives! Please let me know if I can help or join the cause in any way!
