This is a problem I had/have when I am trying to quit drinking, so I find it best to avoid situations that involve drinking. It always amazes me how society pressures us on all levels to drink, drink, drink. It's everywhere! Movies, television shows, magazines, books, grocery stores, events, parties, etc. When you decline a drink, it seems you get responses like this, "Are sure? How about just one? It's a special occasion. Why, what's wrong? You are no fun." It makes it tough on those of us trying to quit the stuff. People should respect when someone declines alcohol and not ask questions.
