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!

“The Brain” was amazing! The studies made so much sense and I can really understand the negative effects of porn and how it changes the brain. This was very informative.

My boyfriend regularly watched porn, and his expectations of sex were warped because of it. Since quitting, we’ve had a much healthier sex life and relationship in general. Porn kills love. Thank you for fighting against it.

Thanks for helping me quit. I start today onward.

This docuseries was amazing. It’s given me even more motivation to stay away from pornography!

Thank you for being a beacon of hope in a time when I felt so low.

I didn’t realize how badly porn affected me until I stopped watching it completely a few months ago. Now I feel like a completely different woman. Lighter, happier, free. I control my sexuality, not the other way around. I use that energy for creativity.

It's still a long journey, but I already see a lot of improvement in myself.

I honestly can’t thank you enough for taking the time to send me a personal message with so much guidance and encouragement. I feel better about moving forward knowing I’m not alone and I have these resources. I’m glad you mention shame so many times. Even when you love someone, it’s honestly really hard to accidentally bring shame into the conversation because you feel so hurt. Thank you for reminding me it’s not personal because it truly feels like you’ve been cheated on and it’s really tough to separate yourself from the situation. I’m going to look into these resources and try to make progress. You are making a big difference in our world, thank you.

I’ve never heard so much information about porn. I’ve searched a lot of websites but none of them were as descriptive and detailed as yours. More so, having people share their experiences gives me so much hope.

First, whoever you are, let me express my appreciation for this organization coming into existence. A science-based, non-religious movement is the approach called for. It never occurred to me that I was addicted to porn until I came across FTND videos on YouTube. It prompted me to say out loud to myself and later to a friend that I am a recovering porn addict, and let me tell you, it was a relief! I've been "on the wagon" for three months, and I want to stay on it for the rest of my life.

Thank you for spreading knowledge and helping us live better lives.

I just wanted to show my gratitude for this page. I have struggled for many years. I am on my first week of no porn for the first time in 7-8 years. I am in awe of the difference it is making in my life. The heaviness and shame are gone and I am so much happier. Keep exposing the fallacies that are surrounded by porn and do not quit telling the truth!

I haven’t watched porn since I heard about your campaign 7 months ago.

As a former porn addict, I am very grateful that this kind of information is getting out there. It helps strengthen my resolve not to regress back into those old habits. This addiction can feed human trafficking along with perpetuating the objectification of my own gender. Can’t thank you enough for your work on this front. Only wish you’d have been around when I was a teen.
