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 so much! It’s amazing what you do, and you provide excellent and helpful materials and resources as well. For me, as a high school teacher in Switzerland, you’re a helping hand for supporting students who deal with questions and problems around these topics. All across the pond! So thanks again—I’m really proud to be a Fighter!
Last week, someone on Fight the New Drug's Facebook page encouraged me to tell my girlfriend about my addiction to porn. I've been scared to tell her, but after reading about Lamar Odom's story, I've decided I'm going to tell her.
What an eye-opening and helpful experience to learn about the underbelly of the pornography industry.
Amazing! I can’t wait to sit and watch Brain, Heart, World with my boyfriend. We’ve both been struggling with our own addictions to porn and this was so packed with information that sought only to help, not to judge. Thank you!
I wanted to take this time to say thank you. Thanks for all that y’all do to shine a light on pornography and sexual exploitation. When I was a kid, my dad did things to my sister that I won’t mention. His pornography addiction cost him his two precious children. There were many years I was hurt by those circumstances and held onto my anger. Since then, I’ve been able to attend a recovery program and use Fortify. I’m now starting my own organization with a friend that centers around child abduction prevention. I am grateful for all that y’all do. Fight on!
I wanted to reach out and let you know that this organization is really an incredible resource, especially for other teenagers like me. I chose to write my most recent research paper on the detriments of pornography. I knew it wasn't a good thing, but I was shocked by the sheer number of ways it can negatively impact a person. This paper quickly became priority number one in school. Fight the New Drug provided a lot of information that really benefited me as both a person and a writer. I check in regularly to see what new information is available and always look forward to reading more. Thank you for providing this information for us.
I’m on day 24 of no porn after 8 years of struggling with porn. Thanks for doing what you do–keep it up.
I loved it! The whole segment was done with excellence in a way that keeps the viewer’s’ attention. I will definitely be encouraging my friends and family to watch this, whether they themselves are struggling with pornography consumption or not.
I am currently battling this addiction and I struggle to find the words to express my gratitude to everyone who made this documentary, and to everyone who made it available.
I’m a high school counselor, and I see how, in teen culture, sending and receiving nudes has become “normal.” I see the firsthand effects this has on both boys and girls: depression, anxiety, shame, guilt, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and in some cases, death by suicide. I always direct my clients to your work for help. Thank you for shedding light on this pivotal issue our teens and children are facing.
Extremely well-produced! Thanks so much! I feel better now knowing I am not alone.
I have self-esteem and trust issues. I'm still with my partner, and after talking about porn's harm, we're much better. I love him with all my heart, and I now feel he loves himself and me more than ever. I'm so happy I was finally able to communicate and feel free to talk about this.
Thank you for your work to help us educate our children and ourselves about the harms of porn. I wish I had this knowledge when I was a teen!
Thank you for all that you do. FTND never ceases to amaze me with the bold people who share their stories, informative fact-based articles, and forward movement toward a very important cause. Your article about Hollywood celebrities created a few heroes of mine. For big-name icons to be speaking out about this is bigger than just about anything I’ve ever seen. I genuinely appreciate all that FTND does.
I still remember the day you guys came to my school, and really, what was said and the info given has had a continual impact on my life to this day.
