Are you a vegetarian?

Are you a vegetarian/vegan?
Yes, because it is immoral for a human to cause another sensitive intelligent creature to suffer and die merely in order to satisfy the perverted desire of having flesh in one's mouth for about a half second before swallowing, and because humans are not biologically adapted to eat other animals, which is why doing so is associated with a variety of disease conditions (e.g., heart disease, hypertension, various cancers).

Morality is subjective.
Humans are omnivorous. I support your right to eat whatever suits you. I think if you chewed your food for longer than half a second, you digestion would work much better, though.

Are you a vegetarian/vegan? Why have you become one? Was it religion, health, compassion? Do you feel better than when you ate meat (if you ever did so)?

I am a vegetarian for 7 years already I can say that my immune system is better now and my mind is clear and it is easier to stay conscious and alert if needed.

Looking forward to reading your stories :)

Yes I am a vegetarian. I am one for health reasons and no other reasons. I did not feel better when eating meat.

Humans would never have made it through the Pleistocene without being omnivores. We're well adapted to carnivory.
