How do I deal with peer pressure?

Peer pressure can be intense, but remember that you always have a choice. Know your values and what's important to you before you're in a pressured situation. Practice saying no in low-stakes situations so it's easier when it matters. You can say things like 'That's not for me' or 'I'm good, thanks' without elaborate explanations. Find friends who respect your decisions and don't pressure you to do things that make you uncomfortable. Real friends will support your choices, even if they're different from theirs. Trust your instincts - if something feels wrong, it probably is.
