There are two outcomes I can imagine people falling into. Either you get more sensitive to animal suffering and that affects your mood.

Or are you happier because you have adopted a lifestyle that minimizes animal suffering?

    Personally I knew it was wrong to unnecessarily cause suffering long before I went vegan, so I’ve been much happier since cutting it out of my life. I get unreasonably happy about making new dishes or desserts now, without that niggling thought of the animals that suffered or died for it and the cognitive dissonance of trying to ignore it and still care about animals.
