This study aimed to investigate the main psychosocial impacts of the adoption of veganism in the current social context, through the perspective of the vegan subjects themselves. This is a qualitative study, carried out through a content analysis, a technique proposed by Bardin. There were five participants, four of them being females and one being male, all of them being around 26 years old. Data collection was done by searching on the YouTube platform for the keywords “veganism”, “vegan”, “how veganism affected my life” and “how veganism changed my life”. After trials, five videos were selected to represent the participants. The analysis was made through the elaboration of empirical categories and subcategories from the topics listed by the participants. A total of 51 thematic units were found and divided into four categories and seven subcategories. Through the calculus of relative frequency, it was observed that the most relevant category was the Activism one and by the results of the study, it was identified that the impacts that stood out the most within the participants were Activism and the Physiological Functioning ones.
