Have you ever felt pressured to drink even when no one was actually pressuring you? Maybe you order a glass of wine because everyone else is drinking, or you say yes to another round because you don't want to deal with questions about why you're stopping. No one is telling you what to do, and yet saying no still feels surprisingly difficult.
This week, we're exploring why you can feel pressured to drink even when that pressure isn't coming directly from anyone around you. There's often more influencing your decisions than you realize, and some of it starts happening before you even arrive at the party, restaurant, or social gathering. Understanding these invisible influences can help explain why drinking sometimes feels like the easier choice.
