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!

Thank you, I now have an understanding of why porn feels like an addiction even when I stop watching. More importantly, I now have the tools to speak to my children about this destructive material that’s found all over the internet.

Your organization is doing so much good. You are giving people an outlet who want to get out of the pornography cycle, and educating people who don’t to possibly understand the potential effects that porn can have on the brain and relationships. Also, what I love is that you teach that hope is not lost. Change is always attainable. You can have relationships, you can help others. Thank you again for all the work you do. I remember 5 years ago when you came to my high school and spoke. It has been the only school assembly I remember today. I know that you must receive criticism and opposition to what you do but keep going. You are truly making a difference. Thank you again.

It was good to see in the documentary how other people were affected by porn and that no one is alone in this fight.

Thanks for making this movie. I am 37 and I was in my bubble during these years, suffering the cause and effects of porn. I wanted to talk about this, but I felt ashamed to talk publicly. Porn stole my childhood and my passion for this world. Everything was clouded by porn thoughts, irrespective of relationships. I am a meditation practitioner now and it helps a lot with making me more productive in many areas of my life. But the intensity of porn wiring my brain was huge and I still struggle a lot. I was looking for methods, motivation, and especially information to be helpful for me and finally, I found this documentary series. It's so enlightening and also makes me feel happy to see the laughing faces at the end of each episode. Thanks again for being such wonderful human beings. Please spread the truth as much as you can, and I will do my part.

I found this organization a few years ago, and I was absolutely awestruck. Because of your resources, I have been inspired to fight against sex trafficking and raise awareness on the slavery and abuse those human beings go through. Being factually educated by FTND on the detriments of porn has really enlightened a passion in me for standing up for respect for everyone. Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do on a day-to-day basis.

Ever since I saw Brain, Heart, World 100 days ago, I haven’t watched porn since. For my 100th day without porn celebration, I decided to share my personal story with porn and objectification on my blog for all of my friends and family to know what is going on with this fight and journey I am on. It was very difficult to share this, but Fight the New Drug has helped me to see that it is okay to talk about this and that is the only way that this may change. Thank you all!

I’m currently 17 and I am still battling against porn. Once in a while, I still get the urge to watch it. Watching your YouTube channel, and with the help of my girlfriend, I’ve been keeping away from it for a long time now. I’m really glad for all of the information your channel gave me. Thank you for helping me.

Thank you for making this documentary series. It's echoed thoughts I've been having recently about how things have been developing in the world though I couldn't entirely put it into words. I am grateful to learn more about the brain and how we are the results of the choices we make.

I’ve been following you guys for more than a year. A week ago, I confessed to someone that I struggle with porn. Once those words left my mouth, I felt this huge relief off my chest. I’ve been struggling with porn since I was 10 years old and now I am 24 years old. I hid my addiction in the dark, but now it’s in the light. I just want to thank you guys for this page. It’s been so helpful, and now I can walk on this path to freedom! My chains have been broken!

My husband struggled with addiction to pornography since his teenage years. The first time I found out, I was pregnant with our first child and didn’t react well. The second time he confessed to me I was in a better place and my reaction was totally different. I asked how I could help, cheered him on, and sometimes babysat his phone when he was feeling tempted. He hasn’t viewed pornography for 2 years! Being loving and understanding truly made all the difference.

Every word spoken on the podcast has made me a better person for having listened to it. I've consumed pornography since I was a kid, and I've been disgusted with it for a very long time but still relapse. Jane Doe’s testimony is maybe the single most motivating thing I've encountered in overcoming my “need” for porn.
