Just Why Do People Drink And How To Say No

People tend to begin drinking for a number of reasons, but the most common one of all is just to socialise. Drinking practise will normally start while at high school or university but for some unknown reason continues on into our adult lives as we surround ourselves by other drinkers, but sadly the real root causes of drinking go much deeper.

The reasons for drinking though seem to become quite apparent to us, being depression, stress or just the desire to relax, but the sad conclusion is that whatever the reasons are, we have become completely dependant on alcoholic beverages.

For majority of us it just becomes habit forming like drinking a coke in the morning or smoking a cigarette after meals; alcohol intake is just another daily action. Although these habits in moderation can be considered acceptable, it becomes an issue when the frequency of the habit gets out of control.

A real tell tale symptom about going out and drinking is when you can't enjoy yourself without a drink inside you. If this is your case it may the time to consider the possibility that your habit has turned into an addiction.

When it comes to having to explain to your close friends and family about your decision to stop drinking, it should be quite sufficient to say that you wish to refrain from drinking. The problem is that there are always people in your life where this decision will be more complicated to explain so here are some really good examples of excuses you can use.

I'm driving...I have to get up early tomorrow...I'm on painkillers...I'm just too bloated...I promised the Mrs I wouldn't...I've got a job to do when I get home.

Quite honestly the reason you choose is not the issue here, the important factor is remaining firm to your word and not allowing other people to convince you otherwise. If a colleague tries to twist your arm on having just a quick one, just walk away and use your imagination to find something else to do and preferably with people that don't drink to enjoy themselves.
