Hello.
My psychiatrist recently told me about 'moral injury'--a phenomenon in which a person develops PTSD-like symptoms as a result of having been forced to go against their values, or watch others doing so. Of course the reason he told me about it is because I am going through it, in part due to being an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person (a form of neurodivergence)), and in part because of having friends whose values are the polar opposite of mine.
I have grown tired of feeling like I have to choose between betraying myself and losing my loved ones, and so have decided to try to make new friends whose values are in alignment with my own, and one of the things that I am the most vehemently against is the torture and murder of animals.
If you are also a vegan HSP and are interested in making meaningful and lasting connections with people who share your values, let me know, and I will send you a quiz I made to determine our overall compatibility (like the match-questions you get on dating websites). My goal is to put together a group of like-minded peers who can enjoy each other's company without fear of moral injury, while also supporting each other's healing journeys.
Looking forward to hearing back from you,
Sen
p.s. I am 32 and would prefer to befriend people of a similar age who live near Montreal, but it is not a requirement.
