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!
Hello, I just want to say thank you so much for the help. I haven’t watched porn since June 2020. I’ve been hurting my girlfriend for years, whom I love very much. It’s crazy how addicting porn can be and how it negatively impacts someone’s life and their loved ones. I truly appreciate the help and guidance you guys gave me.
Porn really messed me up. I used to be focused on my goals as a student, and I connected well with my peers, but all of that went wrong after viewing porn and getting hooked. I’ve lost my self-esteem, I don’t socialize, and I am always so lonely. Every time I go without porn for some time, I regain energy, but I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve relapsed. I’m not giving up though, I’ll keep up the fight.
Hi! I just want to say that I’m really glad to have bumped into this organization on Instagram. It has helped me understand so much about the negative effects of porn and the reality of the industry. Although I don’t have an addiction to porn, I used to watch it. I think educating myself on the topic made me so aware of the negative aspects of the industry. I think I feel shame from unknowingly giving support to something that has so much correlation to horrible situations people face, but I’m just glad that is something that I have pushed myself to combat. Thank you so much for your platform and for bringing awareness; it is very much needed! I appreciate it so much and keep doing what you are doing, FTND!
Being a wife and choosing to fight alongside my husband, who’s celebrating 895 days in recovery, has been the hardest and most rewarding experience of our lives! Through this journey, we’ve celebrated and fought together as accountability partners, best friends, lovers, husband and wife, and now future parents!
We’ve learned so much. First, love can’t be clicked! It’s about real people, real love, and life! It’s about the journey and that we’re stronger fighting together! Also, it’s never going to be easy every day, it might not always be a victory–we are not perfect, and life isn’t perfect. It’s messy but it’s beautiful and it’s so worth it to fight! Consistency, accountability, and knowledge are some huge factors that helped his success along the way. Honestly, we wouldn’t be celebrating here today if it wasn’t for Fight the New Drug. Thank you, thank you, thank you for existing!
My boyfriend has struggled with porn for the majority of his life. He’s stayed clean ever since we’ve been dating, but sometimes his irrational expectations of intimacy have bothered me. I now understand from this documentary where that comes from. His reward system is trying to get what it needs in other areas. I’m so grateful for these episodes so that I can understand him better and that we can talk about how it has affected his brain. Thank you!
