I was a junk addict ever since i was a child (candies, chocolate etc) and it lasted until my teenage years where i woke up but was still a sugar addict because of the agricultural company lies making me eat sugary fruit.
every time i try to quit junk, i get irresistable cravings, social pressure etc into rebounding. it makes me feel trash. i always feel garbage. where i live, there is no access to anything but raw milk, eggs and meat. i dont have access to anything else. AND JUNK AND FRUIT ARE FUCKING EVERYWHERE. what do i do.

the human brain is capable of learning across all it's life. learning has become even more easy today than ever before thanks to the internet. it shouldn't be shameful for an adult to not know how to read or write. there should be no pressure in the first place to do something like this. every adult can willingly learn at any age how to read and write. now, while it does bring a quality of life advantage to learn how to read or write, it doesn't mean we can't do it at any age and that it shouldn't be a choice. you won't die when you don't learn it at age 8.
