I very much don't want to have to kill animals for food but meat is such an unreplaceable source of easily digestible nutrients. I've been looking at communities like /r/exvegans and /r/stopeatingseedoils and... They're pretty convincing...

And I'm hungry all the time and my poops are never solid and I get tired sooner than I think I should... But I also never get sick...

I'm tempted to just listen to the drugs on this one, like I didn't choose to be a carnivorous monkey. Hmmmm. I've been craving a steak so badly. Ugh. Urgh.

    Don't torture yourself. If you're feeling worse and think having meat in your diet will help, then it's fine. And it's not all or nothing, you can have meat for just a few meals a week if you want. Or hell if just having a steak every couple months is enough to help, go for it.

    If you haven't been eating other animal products either, those could help too. Eggs are a great protein source and pretty versatile. Cheese (and milk products in general) is just plain delicious. Scrambled eggs with cheese is a very common breakfast for a reason.
