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!
Hey! Literally no one knows but me, and now you, that it was ever an issue, but today is my first anniversary of being clean from porn and I really wanted to tell someone! This is the longest I’ve gone in 20 years! And also, I wanted to thank you. It has been really helpful to see y’alls posts daily and be reminded that I don’t actually want it. It’s 3:40 am as I’m writing this and I’m just so happy because I never thought I’d make it this long. THANK YOU!
From the bottom of my heart, I’d like to thank everyone involved in the FTND organization for what you all have done and continue to do to help young men and women become healthy. To realize there are others similar to myself struggling with this addiction motivates me so much more to empower myself and improve my quality of life. Keep up the incredible message!
Hi. I think this movement is amazing. The amount of work that has been put into it shows— everything from the documentary to the interviews, the website, and the store. I was aware of the issues, like sex trafficking and relationship interference, but this really puts it all together and makes me want to change. Thanks for everything.
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.
I always had the strong feeling that I was alone with this, especially because I’m a woman. But since I started this journey of recovery, I noticed that this is not exclusively a male problem. Girls struggle, too. With a huge amount of courage, I told my best friend about my struggle. She said: “You know what? I don’t care what you’re struggling with. You’re still the same, wonderful person I love so much.” This changed my life. I started to tell more people that I trusted and always got a similar response: we’re in this together.
So to all the Fighters out there, I want to encourage you! Tell someone you trust about your struggle. It will not get better by hiding and shaming yourself. You are powerful and worthy of love! I’m currently still recovering. My journey is not over yet. But I hang in there. I know one day I will be able to say that I beat this. And I can’t wait for this day!
The other day I saw the video with Terry Crews and his “Porn Kills Love” shirt. It has really inspired me. I found you guys and have read your tips on how to keep myself occupied. I’ve had issues with porn since I was 11, and for the past few days, I’ve stayed away from it. And I’ve never felt better in my life. I’ve only been off for 4 days but I’m proud of myself for fighting the urge.
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.
Hello! Firstly, thank you for your amazing work done for 17 years! I discovered you today, just after a meaningful break-up. The compulsive use (or addiction) of porn and sexcams destroyed him and our relationship. In the end, I am a person who gives back love and good for terrible experience. I want to share love and inspire others of doing good, even if you are hurt. So again, thank you for speaking about the problem from both addict’s and partner’s experience. Making a donation for you is a pleasure.
