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 so much, I can’t tell you what a relief it is to see people talking about and doing something about this issue. I used to think I’d live in a world where I was the crazy one for not being okay with porn, and past boyfriends always wanted me to believe that every single guy was that way and I’d just have to get used to it. I saw how much it damaged my relationships, my self-esteem, and the men themselves, and it’s just so great to find your page. Thank you.
I am so incredibly impressed with the quality, creativity, excellent research, flow, humor, etc. of how you all have produced such a fantastic docuseries! Thank you so much! I am a speaker/health educator for junior and high school students and I am always looking for great material to help the students recognize the dangers of pornography. Thank you again for such superior material and information produced in such an engaging way. Very very impressive!
It feels great to contribute to something that’s helped me so much. When I discovered this amazing organization, I was really addicted to porn but wanted to quit. I ruined my relationship with my girlfriend at the time and pushed a lot of people away. Through FTND, I was able to conquer my addiction. I happened to stumble upon this website from a Google search. I’ll freely admit that when I first realized/discovered your site’s purpose, I immediately thought to myself, ‘It’s another one of those self-righteous “porn is bad” groups trying to tell people how to live.’ But once I read through your mission page, it became obvious that I was wrong. I’m actually very impressed by your goals that are the literal opposite of every other anti-porn group I’ve come across. Your stance of helping those who ask for it and respecting the freedoms of those who choose not to is extremely refreshing to see. I wish you luck!
3 months into quitting porn and it disgusts me now. I cannot believe how warped my mind was—the only way I could feel satisfied during sex was being violent. Thank you for fighting the good fight. I have so much more motivation to achieve more in my life, so much more energy, and I’m much more calm and confident.
What you’re doing is so essential to help people engage in healthy, lasting relationships. My marriage was deeply affected by porn. Everything you say is true, I witnessed it firsthand. Once the ‘secret’ was out we were finally able to address all the problems porn caused and it has been a years-long process. As a wife, it’s utterly gut-wrenching to find out your partner was betraying your trust and destroying intimacy in your marriage by using porn. My husband became withdrawn, uninterested in me, irritable, and his behavior completely changed. He was doing a multitude of other things that were destructive to himself and our relationship. Deception became normal, and more extreme behaviors became OK. Our marriage was robbed of true love and intimacy by porn. My husband has so much more awareness now. He’s at a local Fight the New Drug presentation with our sons right now! Thanks for everything you’re doing!
Long story short, when my best friend told me that he’s been struggling to stay away from watching porn, I sent him the FTND documentary, Brain, Heart, World. Because he is a political adviser, educator, and lawyer, he felt disgusted and devastated to learn that porn fuels the demand for human sex trafficking. This was one big reason that made him stop watching porn.
