Going vegan is easy, but breaking the news to your family and friends can be difficult. If you’re lucky, you have family members and friends who support your decision to stop eating animal products—some might even join you! But it can be the other way around, and your family might not accept your decision to go vegan. But don’t worry, we have it all figured out for you.
Any dietary change is a process, and gets easier over time. It can feel overwhelming to do it all at once and it’s okay to take it step-by-step—cutting out one animal product at a time. Don’t worry if you accidentally consume animal products during your initial transition. Remember that the key is to take the most important steps to move society away from using animals. It’s possible that your determination to persuade others to join could make veganism appear too difficult. So go easy on yourself and others around you.
As a new vegan, it’s obvious that you feel the need to share about what’s happening to animals. And sometimes you feel angry with non-vegans. But it’s also important to realize that non-vegans will only want to be vegan if they associate it more with happiness than anger. For this reason, when around non-vegans, we suggest you express the happiness and satisfaction you feel in making the world more compassionate. Want to spread more information about veganism?
