I've been a vegetarian for 30 years now. But I include salmon, tuna, eggs and milk.
I have the fish because of the fish oil, omaga 3 think.
I was vegan for 2 years but found it hard to manage, plus I lost a lot of weight. I got too low for my bmi so I gave it up.
I've been vegetarian longer than I've been bipolar so I don't know the effect on stability. I've had my ups and downs but have been depressed for 3 years now if that says anything.
I switched because I felt better after a vegetarian meal so I thought I could feel better all the time if I switched, and I do.
I'm not opposed to eating animals but I am opposed to the scale at which we do it. Being vegetarian reduces the number of animals raised and proceed by a little so it's my way of reducing demand.
