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 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.

Brain, Heart, World was very informative and insightful. The topic itself was uncomfortable to think about watching, but as I watched it, it just made me feel like I was learning more about how we are all affected differently by the things in this world and how it is the little things that are done over and over again that can have larger and more intense effects on us as an individual.

This was truly life-changing for me. This completely altered my thought process and I will never view porn the same way again!

My husband and I just wanted to contribute to your mission because we feel really strongly about educating people about the harmful effects of pornography. When we began dating, I had no idea that my then-boyfriend was struggling with a porn addiction that began in his early teens. A few months in, he was honest with me about it, and we began a journey of healing. I am happy to say that because of your resources, we were able to learn so much. It was a big push in the right direction for us to completely cut porn consumption out of our lives. Although it is a struggle some days, we are dedicated to REAL LOVE, and our marriage is better off for it. It has been nearly a year since my husband watched porn, which is the longest stretch so far, and I am so proud. Thank you for all you do.

I am so grateful to see that so many people are learning and understanding that pornography is harmful. It’s not only harmful and unhealthy to the person watching it, but those around them are also deeply affected. Thank you for this fantastic podcast!

I just received my “People ≠ Products” shirt and I’m thrilled with it! Thank you also for sending stickers, I’m going to put them on my laptop and water bottle to further rep the movement! Thank you, thank you, thank you for everything you do. A lot of people close to me have been affected by porn, so it’s something I’m very passionate about. I appreciate that you’re a non-religious organization so I have a secular, scientific resource to share with people who are skeptical about objecting to porn on moral or religious grounds. I discovered you guys through one of my friends who constantly wears his PKL shirts. He’s had a lot of struggles with porn, but he’s so open about it and has helped so many people! You guys as a community encourage me so much.

Wow, this is such a good documentary series! I struggle more with objectifying others, but it’s a similar concept for sure! Really encouraging.

Hi, I just wanted to thank you so much for the work you’re doing. I’ve never watched porn, but I’ve been in a relationship with a guy who did, and it came through in the way he treated me, and as a result, it has deeply impacted my sexuality negatively. Almost every guy I know watches it and that can get pretty discouraging. Your website has been a light in the darkness, a sign that people are fighting porn, a sign that I’m not alone. Thank you so much.

“Consider Before Consuming” has changed the way I think. It’s truly a weapon worth carrying into our daily battles. A must-listen-to podcast.

Your articles and documentary have helped me so much with my fight. I’m very fortunate to have you guys work so hard every day to help me. So, thanks for everything you’ve done for me and for people around the world.

Thanks for everything you guys do. Honestly, the fight is real and sometimes shame eats at me but thanks for the inspiration.

Thank you so much for what you do! I often feel so overwhelmed by the problem of pornography and how it feeds the sex trafficking industry and destroys relationships. People have written off my claims that pornography is harmful because they assume it’s a moral stance, when really, I’m just trying to help people understand how horrible porn is. It’s so helpful that you guys have timely research and articles that I can share with people and the fact that you are not religiously affiliated helps me to make my case. Thank you!

Being a wife and choosing to fight alongside my husband, who’s celebrating 895 days in recovery, has been the hardest and most rewarding experience of our lives! Through this journey, we’ve celebrated and fought together as accountability partners, best friends, lovers, husband and wife, and now future parents! We’ve learned so much. First, love can’t be clicked! It’s about real people, real love, and life! It’s about the journey and that we’re stronger fighting together! Also, it’s never going to be easy every day, it might not always be a victory–we are not perfect, and life isn’t perfect. It’s messy but it’s beautiful and it’s so worth it to fight! Consistency, accountability, and knowledge are some huge factors that helped his success along the way. Honestly, we wouldn’t be celebrating here today if it wasn’t for Fight the New Drug. Thank you, thank you, thank you for existing!

I have basically purchased an entire wardrobe from you recently. Going to cycle much of my current wardrobe out. Looking forward to repping the cause since I still struggle with porn and have come to learn how much it has affected my personal relationships.
