A COLLECTION OF GRATITUDE & IMPACT CURATED BY FIGHT THE NEW DRUG
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!
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.
Really great for young audiences, but really there is so much here for adults, too. I learned a lot about addiction in general. I wish my family could have seen this when my child was 10, before he became addicted.
I was exposed to pornography at age 13 and am 18 now. It's been an on-and-off battle. When the chemicals are flowing, it's easy to just give in to the momentary desires. A couple weeks ago, I had the urge to watch porn after resisting for a couple weeks. I struck a deal with myself: visit fightthenewdrug.org first and then see how I feel. I did so and ended up spending about 2 hours on your website. IT IS AMAZING. Since then, I‘ve felt stronger and better than ever. Now I have the brain, heart, and societal reasons to fight back. This movement is such a blessing. I love how it is not religiously rooted; it's for everyone. It’s a message that I hope continues to spread. You guys are amazing and have made me a better person. Thank you so much! You have helped me to remember to consider before consuming!
Incredible series. This is incredibly helpful in my personal fight against porn and it’s a great tool to share with others for their own fights.
Four years ago, I messaged you asking for help with my addiction. I was a high school student, terrified by the horrible addiction that had begun to eat away at my life. I’m 3 months free from porn. It may not seem like much, but I feel like a new person. I’m so grateful to you and I’m so thankful that I’m finally free. Thank you for everything you guys do!
Thank you so much for the Brain,Heart,World videos. It broke it down very well and in a way that got through to my husband, I think. Keep up the great work!
You guys are the best! I put my Fighter Club stickers on all of my electronics and I’m entering my longest porn-free period in 9 years! The podcast and social media posts help me stay motivated and my monthly donation reminds me that I’m literally invested in winning!
It was awesome. It helped me understand things about this addiction in a much better way and ways to get away from it.
Thank you so much! I knew I was not alone. From now on, I choose to stop. I’ll make it. I will be a person full of life again.
The work that FTND does was key to overcoming my pornography addiction. I always considered what I was doing as harming no one but myself, but coming to terms with the violence and trafficking within the sex industry was eye-opening and led me to stop consuming. Thank you!
Me and my fiance have benefited so much from FTND we've experienced the harms of porn and now we are beginning to experience the benefits of beginning to be free of porn!
You guys have changed my life and taught me how to avoid shame when talking about pornography. And have shown me what I want in a relationship! I’m so grateful for your organization and all you’ve taught me!
The documentary was captivating. I enjoyed how it not only gave scientific data on the harmful effects of pornography but also ended with hope for those entrenched in this epidemic.
In the midst of all that’s happening in the world, I had forgotten that this year is a big milestone for me: I was addicted to porn for 13 years growing up, and I have been free from that addiction for 13 years in March. Big thanks to Fight the New Drug for not backing off from the fight!
Thanks for helping people make the decision about what to consume based on the facts and not just opinions!
