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’m currently in counseling right now to retrain my brain to not want porn. I went over 50 days without a stumble for the first time in my life, and even though I did eventually fall, my wife and counselor were so proud! This journey has also helped to create a healthy sex life for my wife and me. I no longer see her as an object but as my forever partner who will stand by me through this struggle! This movement has changed my life and I never want to go back to the way things used to be. Keep fighting and keep loving!
I just wanted to let you know that this page has helped me so much to fight my pornography addiction. I have been seriously addicted to porn since I was around 12, and this year I am 17. So I have been addicted to porn for 5 years, but I have been making vast improvements since following your Facebook page. I used to watch pornography daily, but I no longer do. I recently had a 1-week streak of no porn and am now wanting to achieve 3 weeks. Knowing this page exists and is behind to support me in ridding my addiction is a true blessing. Thank you so much.
I remember crying and trying to find a way to tell my parents. I was so worried about how they would react. After five minutes of sobbing in front of them, I said the words out loud that I vowed I would never say: “Mom, Dad, I’m addicted to pornography and I need your help.” The first thing my mother said was, “I am so proud of you.” The first thing my dad said was, “I have 35 years of experience with this, and I am ready to help. We can do this together. I love you.” There is nothing I believe in more than cultivating trusting relationships so that you have people to fall back on who love you perfectly and will help you always.
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.
I used to make adult content on Tumblr. I believed it was a good way to make money and grow an audience. When I realized that I would be contributing to the downfall of others, I immediately stopped. I then saw how engrossed Tumblr was in porn, even after their iconic porn ban. This organization gives me hope for a better society.
Thanks for your work, guys. The beginning of the pandemic was rough for me—I really struggled with pornography. I was doing research about it and came to your Instagram page, which led me to the podcast. I listened to like two episodes and, no word of a lie, I haven’t watched porn in at least eight months now. I can’t do it on my own, so finding your podcast was amazing. Thanks, guys.
I believe that podcasts and organizations like this are just what we need. Porn has become such a prevalent issue in our society today, and being able to have challenging conversations and ones that might seem a bit awkward at first is exactly what we need to push ourselves outside of our comfort zones and focus instead on emotional healing and prevention from the damaging effects that porn can have.
