A sober lifestyle means choosing to live without alcohol or other substances that can alter your mind and body. Some people choose to stop drinking for health reasons, while others may do it for personal growth or spiritual reasons. Living sober doesn’t mean missing out on fun or social activities. In fact, many people find that they enjoy life more once they give up alcohol.
There is a rise of the sober month challenges, namely Dry January, Dry July, and Sober October.

Peer pressure is when people around you try to influence you to do something. In social settings, this might include drinking alcohol. The pressure might not always be direct like someone telling you to drink. It could be more subtle, such as people questioning why you’re not drinking or making jokes about your choice. Handling this can feel overwhelming, but there are ways to stay strong in your decision to stay sober.
