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 work you are doing to create awareness and tackle this massive issue is incredible! Thank you to everyone involved for your efforts. Over the years I have felt alone and isolated in my thoughts and feelings on how harmful porn is and it allows me to breathe a sigh of relief to finally live in a time where others are also speaking out about it and changing how it is perceived.
Four years ago, I messaged you asking for help with my addiction. I was a high school student, terrified by the horrible addiction that had begun to eat away at my life. I’m 3 months free from porn. It may not seem like much, but I feel like a new person. I’m so grateful to you and I’m so thankful that I’m finally free. Thank you for everything you guys do!
I found porn in an effort to understand what was being done to me. As a 10-year-old boy, I was being molested and raped regularly by my 16-year-old male cousin. I found out later that he was addicted to porn, and that was part of what made him try to act it out on me. I struggled with porn and an unhealthy relationship with sex until my early 20s. I bought my first FTND shirt years ago, and I just joined the Fighter Club. Thank you guys for what you are doing to fight something that fuels sexual abuse and child trafficking and exploitation.
Just wanted to share something with y’all. I’m an accountability partner for my best friend, and y’all’s content really helps because I’m able to let him know about the horrors of porn for both the viewers AND the performers. I shared this with him because it helped me in my fight. After getting that insight into pornography, it was easier to fight that temptation because I didn’t want to contribute to hurting others. Because of that, I’m able to help #StopTheDemand.
Your cause is working! I’ve been following FTND since 2018 when my then-boyfriend, now husband, broke my heart for the second time with his addiction. I didn’t know until the second time that it was an addiction, and I encouraged him to get therapy. But I was just scrolling today and I saw this one post, and I read some comments, and people are actually aware of porn’s harms! I’m just so happy that awareness is spreading.
