I've been vegetarian for around 3 years after I discovered how badly we treat animals, and also by connecting meat and animals in my mind... Realising that the same pets that I adore are the steaks that I ate. But still, I went vegetarian because I could. I could manage to find time in my life to change my diet and to make sure I had no deficiency in nutrients... So don't be too hard on yourself mate, your situation is totally understandable! Actually I strongly disagree with people saying that anyone could become vegetarian if they wanted to, it takes a lot of thought, trial and error, time and obviously a lack of allergies... Saying that, anyone can fight for animal rights in their own way, being vegetarian is only one of the many tools we have...
