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!
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!
After struggling with escalating porn use and live webcam affairs, I stumbled upon your CBC podcast with Robert. I had already shared my struggle with a close friend a couple of weeks before this. It was a combination of opening up to a friend and beginning the journey of educating myself (through your resources) that got my recovery journey rolling. Since that day, I have had so much victory! It would not be an understatement to say that you guys played a part in saving my marriage and my life. I eagerly await all of your podcast episodes. Your material for spouses has also been so helpful to me and my wife in understanding this and helping her to heal. We have both watched you Brain, Heart, World documentary and even showed it to our kids. Honestly, it has been so helpful to start the conversation with them about how Dad struggles.
I am constantly impressed with your articles. The research is great and they are balanced well with their choice of words. I feel people who need to hear this would more likely listen because of the way they are written. They do not attack the consumer so much as they point out how the industry is using them.
