I want to go vegan, but..

I don't buy from fast fashion companies. I don't buy leather. I don't support skin care brands that test on animals.

But I just can't go vegan with my diet.

I'm non-vegetarian (please don't kill me) but my diet is 60% plant based 20% dairy and 20% meat.

I've started substituting small things in my life, like milkshakes, or not buying icecreams with milk. Not eating cheese ALL the time.

I have stopped drinking tea everyday too.

I just can't get myself to go fully vegan or even just vegetarian, because I don't want to miss out. A big part of travelling and exploring culture or new places is food. Food is important to me.

I feel guilty because im eating animals, but at the same time i can't stop. I wish I never ate animals from the beginning, that way i wouldn't have ever known what fish tastes like, then i wouldn't struggle with this.

And saying "oh there's substitutes" is kind of dumb because I've tried, nothing tastes like the original stuff.

Ahh I hate this.

I have no one else to talk about this with (I have a vegan friend, but i highly doubt she'd understand.)

Edit: What do I do?? (I missed typing out the most important part)
