How are you supposed to convince your family to go vegan when your mom is overworked and trapped in an abusive relationship, your dad is a narcissist and sometimes buys bags of animal body parts, and you still live at home where questioning anything just makes you look “ungrateful”?
They say vegans should not live by example and instead should be loud about veganism with friends and family.
Hi everyone!
I really care about animals and when I see them suffering, it feels like a something in me dies. I suffer from Vystopia every single day.
I have, for as long as I can remember, wanted to be a part in an animal rights group to help animals.
However, I have severe mental issues. Autism, and the worst thing is derealization which makes life look super distorted to the point where I’m just frustrated and sad all the time. I rest a loooot when I don’t go to uni for mandatory lessons. I’m also really anxious 24/7. I only have one friend, which I see seldomly. I also become mute and freeze a looot when i’m too anxious. But medicine don’t seem to help with my mental issues.
What do you think, am I making a harsh decision? Sometimes I feel like I should just rest, my mind is going in fast and that my body can’t catch up. Should I just continue posting anonymously on Tiktok, as i’m doing now, or maybe take a step further? I really want to help animals ❤️
What does it mean when someone sends you a link and the url starts with with storage.googleapi? is it a virus or something
Could somebody please help me identify the layers of the esophagus? (connective tissue, muscularis mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa) I’ve been looking everywhere online but can’t find the same picture anywhere so it’s hard to know exactly. Thank you so much
I’m not so sure what counts as activism. Do you have to educate people about the industries for it to be activism, or is it still activism if you post little quotes or videos, or wear a bag with a quote?
A few years ago I went through a really bad mental health slump, and still haven’t recovered from it. Ever since then, I’ve become too exhausted to make or keep friends.
I feel miserable. growing up with selective mutism I always dreamed about the day where I would finally be able to talk to people in my school, to be myself. Now, I’m just too drained and exhausted to be “happy” and “cool” and whatever. And it seems like no one wants to be with me unless i’m entertaining like a clown, and I don’t have energy to even talk. So I’m alone, like I was always as a child.
Just one friend to regularly talk to about uni work and all that stuff. But they never ever maintain the relationship and it’s up to me to actually talk to them, so i just give up.
Is anyone selling a course or something on how to make and keep friends with autism and selective mutism?
I post videos about animal rights on Tiktok. What’s the point if it doesn’t even show up in the meat eaters algorithm? Should I give up and do real life activism instead?
