I’ve been vegan for a year now, with 100% consistency and not really any struggle. And still, I know that on any given day there might just be a moment where I could find myself with a half-eaten ham sandwich in my hand because I forgot. It’s so fucked up, how is anyone supposed to build any form of identity when significant parts of it are always at risk of dropping off and being forgotten for no good reason 😮💨
At some random moment completely and utterly purge it from thought for a random amount of time (and then several months later going ‘oh yeah, shit’).
Yup! It’s not “abandoning” per se, it’s more like “totally forgetting that I was trying a new life routine, so stopped doing it”
That’s why it’s so hard to take medication every day.

On the vegan part; you aren’t less of a vegan if you accidentally eat meat. The identity is your intention, not your perfection.
