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 the work that you guys do. I am now breaking generational trauma through my experience and as a mother, and I’ve never been more proud of myself. You are truly one of the only movements right now with the same ideals that I’ve been screaming for people to speak about for the last 20 years.
I realized today that it’s been about four years since I heard about FTND. That’s around 1,460 days porn freeeeeeee! I just have to say that I’m so grateful for the education and power your organization has given me. Before learning about FTND, I had attempted to stop turning to porn for about eight years, with no success. The education and community are what empowered me. I just wanted to share this, and thank each of you for what you do for the movement. Freakin’ love each of you!
I want to share my freedom journey and thank this organization for bringing awareness to something that’s so damaging. Over the past decade, I’ve been in a tormenting relationship with pornography, damaging me from the inside out. I was exposed as a young kid, by a cousin. Curiosity sank in and I started acting out things I saw. I worked and lived among great people, yet I had a secret addiction. Once I finally broke the silence, healing began. I have been porn-free for a few months now and not having the weight of porn on me has been incredible. Thank you for what you are doing.
My experience stirred a passion to get my Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology to become better equipped to confront the porn industry. My heart is for women to find freedom from porn. I have been trying to network and connect with other ladies who have a similar journey. We’re all in this together. The more women break the silence, the less of a stronghold porn has.
Excellent material! Our whole family benefitted from watching the documentary series. We appreciated the definition of love as “focus.” The men, women, and families who were willing to share their stories made the film relevant and believable. Thanks to all those who were willing to be interviewed and share their expert knowledge.
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!
It is a breath of fresh air to be able to listen and learn about the harmful, toxic effects of pornography from a research and facts-based organization. We need more great people in this world like the folks at FTND. While porn does not always show physical damage on the outside, it produces emotional rifts on the inside.
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.
I’ve struggled with porn addiction since age 12. I’m finally choosing to let my shame go. Porn is very prevalent in Icelandic society, but its negative effects are rarely, if ever, discussed. People view it as perfectly normal. Therapists never mention it as an issue, and I’ve never heard an Icelandic person admit they have a problem with porn, so I felt like I was the only one. Hearing personal accounts from FTND and studying the research has been so refreshing, knowing that I am not alone.
In high school, I gave a speech explaining porn stats I got from your website. The teacher told me afterwards she’d learned a lot and wished everyone in school could hear that message. I think people here would agree, but they just don’t know. So I wanted to thank you, especially for your podcast which has been a way for me to be surrounded by light and strength. You reach far outside the US, and have at least one supporter in Iceland. Much love.
