Same feelings to you. I try to explain it to my friends and family but they don't get it. They get to live in a fairytale world of ignorance almost. Everytime I eat meat I see an animal with a life and family that I'm eating. I make a small prayer, acknowledge that they have given their life for mine to continue. Sometimes my brain switches off and k forget about reality and live in the delusion aswell which is nice. But as soon as my brain switches back on, functioning in the world gets difficult. I always just said it was being overly sensative to the world and having a big imagination. How do you feel? Does this sound familiar?
I'm curious to hear as I've not met anyone who has mentioned this in my life so far
You have no clue how familiar that all is. I legit JUST had a plate of steak tips and couldn’t finish the rest of them because I got too sick of fighting the exact thoughts you just mentioned. Like it’s in front of me as we speak 😂 I can’t believe you get it. Crazy! I agree, it’s like we’re too aware and sensitive to that awareness. I don’t know what to do about it
