Peer Pressure

It is quite possible that we all experience some form of peer pressure at some point in our lives. It may be that we feel pressured into smoking, drinking or taking drugs. We may also feel pressured into embarking on sexual relationships that we are in no way ready for.
It is important to remember that you are you and you should only do things that you want to or feel comfortable doing. Even if your friends don't actively put any pressure on, you may feel pressure yourself because everyone is doing these things around you - but that doesn't mean you have to. The important thing is to be confident in yourself and to develop at the pace you feel comfortable with.
