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 just wanted to thank you guys for making this page! I posted a comment on one of your page’s photos last year, and this man from Florida saw it and followed me since he was dealing with the same thing. Now, he’s moved down here to Arizona, and we’ve actually been married since December!
I just want to say thank you to the people at FTND. I started watching porn at a young age and even got caught multiple times, but couldn’t stop watching it. I realized I was addicted when I was 14, but was never motivated enough to do something about it. Watching your videos on IGTV really helped me find motivation to give up porn. From sex trafficking to how it affects relationships, I realized how much damage I was doing to myself. But after knowing that, I just started feeling bad about myself. That’s when your Brain, Heart, World series came in handy. I was able to see all the people who had struggled with porn and could relate to their stories. I didn’t feel alone anymore. I’m truly inspired by FTND. Thank you so much for taking a stand on this platform. Groups like this are going to change the world.
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.
This is such an important topic. People are either ignorant of the problems or it’s the elephant in the room no one wants to talk about. But once we release the shame and start conversations, then we can win this war. Porn has already destroyed so many relationships, including two of my marriages. Since I’ve been listening to these podcasts and supporting Fight the New Drug, I have the confidence to speak out. Young men have confessed to me that they have issues with real women after growing up on internet porn. People don’t realize what they can be doing to themselves and others. It’s time we speak up like we do with other drugs. Thank you Fight the New Drug for all of this great information and your platform.
Thank you so much. Your page has really helped me. I’m almost a year clean.
