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!

Porn addiction destroyed my husband and my marriage. Thank you for fighting!

Thank you guys for all you do! I love the three documentary episodes–they’re so well done and personable. I find most people don’t know the harms of porn because they don’t talk about it. My boyfriend’s porn habit nearly ended our relationship, but we’ve decided to work it out, and he’s getting help with recovery. No one ever talked to him about porn, told him the harms of it, or asked him if he had a problem with it, and I was shocked. I feel like there are so many people who don’t even know what it’s doing to their brains or relationships— it’s heartbreaking! They don’t know all of that, let alone know about the world of sexual exploitation in the porn industry. People need and deserve real love! Thank you so so much for spreading awareness!

I love that I found you guys. My ex’s porn addiction, which grew into paying for prostitutes, ruined our family and destroyed me as a woman. It was very hard for me to understand. Finding your website has really helped and changed how I see porn addiction and what it really is. Thank you!

This is exactly what I was looking for! Artistic, informative, relatable, respectful, truthful! My whole family can watch this. It's engaging enough to keep the interest of the younger audience but factual and informative enough to keep the older audience interested. Thank you for making this video!

3 months into quitting porn and it disgusts me now. I cannot believe how warped my mind was—the only way I could feel satisfied during sex was being violent. Thank you for fighting the good fight. I have so much more motivation to achieve more in my life, so much more energy, and I'm much more calm and confident.

Hi, I’ve been struggling with a porn addiction for at least 4 years now. I just wanted to let y’all know that looking through your different content really helped me to finally tell my girlfriend about my addiction. I’m almost a month clean now. Keep fighting the good fight.

One of your articles really helped me just now. I realized I spent a lot of time using porn last year because I was sad, hurt, stressed, and alone. Thanks to whomever wrote that article.

I (female) was exposed to pornography at a very early age. It definitely warped my understanding of sexuality and intimacy in ways I'm only just realising now (20+ years on). I agree with the podcast host that the effects of pornography do not discriminate and I am grateful for this channel and its resources. They are helping me unpack how that young exposure fuelled some of my dysfunctional behaviour as I got older. Thanks everyone at FTND

I can honestly say that discovering FTND was a massive breath of fresh air! My relationship got off to a rocky start due to discovering that my boyfriend watched porn. It made me feel extremely negative in so many ways, and yet I was made to feel that it was my issue because, “Porn is not a big deal! It’s not cheating!” Thankfully, four years on, we are more on the same page with the subject of porn. I fully support FTND and will be spreading the word!

Thank you for your efforts to fight this increasingly addictive content, for getting the word out, and for helping guys like me to see the devastation caused by what I once considered an innocent act, a harmless pastime.

I recently searched about whether porn stars enjoyed their jobs. I ran across one of your articles about that very subject. To say it was eye-opening is an understatement. Thank you for your work. It’s necessary!
Impact Journal #559
I am really happy that there is a podcast available on this topic! I myself am a struggling consumer but also an activist of fighting the new drug, and I’ve seen and felt the negative effects it has had on my life. Every day, it is becoming more normal for young adults, teens, and, in some cases, children to view pornography. Podcasts like this help educate myself and others about this new drug. Very grateful for this, and very excited for the knowledge and wisdom and journey of this podcast!

Just wanted to thank you for the impact that this organization had on my life (and many others, I'm sure). Even though it has only been a couple of clean weeks, I've never been happier. Keep up the amazing work that you do!

Hi. I think this movement is amazing. The amount of work that has been put into it shows— everything from the documentary to the interviews, the website, and the store. I was aware of the issues, like sex trafficking and relationship interference, but this really puts it all together and makes me want to change. Thanks for everything.
