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 (female) was exposed to pornography at a very early age. It definitely warped my understanding of sexuality and intimacy in ways I’m only just realising now (20+ years on).
I agree with the podcast host that the effects of pornography do not discriminate and I am grateful for this channel and its resources. They are helping me unpack how that young exposure fuelled some of my dysfunctional behaviour as I got older.
Thanks everyone at FTND
I wish we had this knowledge 30 years ago. My instincts were spot on but I had no evidence to back me up. The evolution of global connectivity turned this industry into a virus. This three-part series is so well done. Kudos! It’s modern, relevant, vulnerable, silly, and lighthearted where appropriate. The last part made me cry. Your research and approach have made it non-threatening to all. I know the hard work put into this on the cinematography and filming alone. I am unraveling my world and healing as we speak. Your website is very profound. Thank you.
I’ve been following FTND for many years now, and I agree that just the posts alone don’t stop the addiction in addicts. But they can help be the beginning for change for an addict, and they especially can potentially prevent someone from becoming an addict in the first place. As someone (female) who was unknowingly addicted to it at age 11, I didnt learn until I was 27 that I was addicted. That’s when I stumbled upon FTND and was educated on my physical and mental symptoms and that porn is linked to human trafficking . I’ve been clean ever since, almost 12 years later. And some symptoms still linger, but I know they will fade with time. And I do my part by sharing information like this to others, to bring awareness and compassion, and educate my own children in age appropriate ways to protect their minds, hearts, and those of others by avoiding such images and videos.
I used to struggle a lot with my addiction to pornography. I started exercising after doing a little research on what porn does to your brain. It was devastating. I still fell almost every month, but I want to be completely free, so watching this helps 110%. Thank you so much for making this documentary! You wonderful humans are saving so many lives! Please let me know if I can help or join the cause in any way!
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.
Hey y’all. I can’t believe it’s been three years since I found y’all. Not gonna lie, I had a pretty heavy relapse with my porn addiction these past few months. But as of Tuesday of this week, I am determined to start over and take active change. And once again, I couldn’t have done it without y’all.
