raw = clarity

[Klarissa]

Apologies in advance if my post is in the wrong place.

About 2 weeks ago I fell of the raw good wagon and not a lot of good things came of it. My mind has suffered the most. While I was raw I was able to plan my life and everything made sense, I had built some realistic and achievable goals for myself and I was so sure of what I wanted to do. But now that my diet has been a disgrace I feel like I want to achieve things that are simply not me, I feel like I have to impress people who don’t really matter and I let everyday waste away because I’m looking to far into the future in a very anxious manner.

I wanted to know if anyone has experienced this before when ruining his or her raw food lifestyle… and does this make any sense??. I hear a lot about raw food and mental clarity… and I believe I was starting to experience that.. but now I’m all ruined (hopefully not for to long)

Don't feel alone. When I first started I really struggled everyday on being raw and not being able to be raw. Then/now I am eating more Raw but, eating more in general and then had slips everyday for the last week. But, I keep striving.
I really love how people on raw reommend do what you can and don't beat yourself up. I tend to be all or nothing but, it doesn't need to be that way it can be 90-10, 80-20, or 70-30. It's a process.............

Hang in there - you are on the right track.
