Default Is veganism no longer for me?!?

Hi everyone, I'm new here. Pleased to meet you all.
I'm Tom, a 21 year old student living in London. I've been vegan for nearly 4 years out of my own choice.
At the moment I'm finding it pretty hard to feel well nourished. I try to eat well, and try to eat 3 decent sized meals a day, though I often substitute a meal for a few snacks out of lethargy to cater properly.
I tend to eat a lot of rice, pita bread, tofu, oats, soy milk. I eat fruit and veg daily, and nuts in some form or another (spreads or in a dish).
However although I'm pretty reluctant, as I still hold the morals that made me become vegan, I'm considering intaking small amounts of dairy- namely eggs. This would be to boost my protein / fat intake.
Right now, my state of health is making me feel very unsure about myself. I'm reluctant to go out sometime, and I sometimes have dizzy spells. Being Vegan also seems to take its toll on my digestive system... if u get what I mean???
I drink plenty of water, and don't smoke.
If someone could please help me out and give me some advice I'd be very gratful.
