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!
This podcast is now one of my favorites. Within it they speak the truth, giving a foundation for those fighting against pornography. More than that, it informs listeners so well about the shocking truth of human trafficking, the consequences of pornography, and so much more. Everyone needs to listen to this so that together we can fight for freedom and fight for love.
Today marks 6 months of freedom from an addiction I had for about 9 years . . . 6 whole months. I didn’t think that would be possible! But I chose to fight, to keep fighting, and still choose to fight (even though it’s tough), and I’ve almost felt the rewiring in my brain!
This freedom has allowed me to love my friends so much more than I ever could before because my heart hasn’t been split between a screen and my friends. I think I’m happier, more content, and better at loving than I was in my early 20’s! Happy happy days.
I just wanted to tell you that your posts are so motivating. I can’t thank you enough–you people are doing a tremendous job. I think the most dangerous thing about porn is that it is accessible. Please continue the work that you’re doing and keep helping millions of people from all over the world get rid of this drug. Thank you once again. Peace!
Our son was negatively impacted by violent pornography. He was caught watching it when he was 12 years old, and we didn’t have the right tools to properly talk to him at that time. Two years later, he sexually assaulted a girl. He simply acted out what he had been consuming over all those years. He didn’t stop watching it when we caught him, he just watched it more secretly. Now that we know more about the effects of pornography and what it’s doing to our youth, marriages, and minds, we try to educate as many people as possible.
I’ve been struggling for a long time now and it’s time for me to stop. I watched the documentary last night and it really helped to see the other side of the issue. I’m very addicted to it and I stayed strong yesterday and I’m planning to keep it like that! Thank you for all you do, and I’m probably going to order a shirt today.
Thank you so much. I went down this path to use sites like that and it’s the loneliest part I have ever taken. It’s never been a part of my values or identity, but somehow I am just hurt, and not that it excuses anything. But now I know, if I have urge to use these websites, it’s a message that I am hurt, and it’s ok if I need to cry to release the emotion instead of acting on this…. Thank you for impacting my life, I have not felt less lonely than I am now for a long time!
It is a breath of fresh air to be able to listen and learn about the harmful, toxic effects of pornography from a research and facts-based organization. We need more great people in this world like the folks at FTND. While porn does not always show physical damage on the outside, it produces emotional rifts on the inside.
