The key to being and staying raw is finding foods you enjoy. From your description, you're literally forcing yourself to eat things you don't like. That's not going to benefit you. You need to find raw equivalents to cooked food. Not necessarily the same foods, but ones you enjoy equally if not more. There are many raw websites and forums that post recipes and where you can get support and ideas.

It also sounds like you're following some specific way of being raw that isn't working for you. Usually the best way is to eat whatever you want as long as it's raw. When that becomes easy, then you can adjust your diet to suit any health issues or lifestyle. You also may not be someone who can go 100% immediately and that's alright. Becoming raw doesn't need to be difficult at all, other than possible detox.
