Is it ok to say "No" to drugs? Or is that a historical thing of gone by reality?

I was at a party last week and was offered a smoke. I said "No" and was laughed at.....😳😳

Since when was it not okay to control what you want putting in your own body? 😕

Don't take it to heart, they'll laugh at anything if they're smoking.

Just because they laugh at you, it doesn't mean it's not okay to say "no". And it's nothing new either. I have been laughed at many times for saying no to alcohol, and people have tried to coerce me, but if you are persistent in declining, they'll accept it in the end (and may even respect you more for it). I have never been offered any other drugs, but I would expect it to work the same way.

Peer pressure goes hand in hand with drug abuse. Belonging has a price.

Possible replies:

No thanks, I'm in training for the next Olympics.

I can't, my Mom told me not to. (I actually used that one in college)

Sorry, I'm a policeman, it wouldn't look right.

The more important thing is a cool self-assured attitude. The comment above about people telling you what to put in your body is spot on correct. If drugs/no drugs is how someone else determines who you are, then they can't be that important or valuable to your life.

I like this one.

You could also say 'tis against your religion. In my experience, that makes people stop trying to force you or laugh...but only if they believe you.

I am a boy scout and I told the others that I don't drink alcohol because I'm not 16 yet and it's against the law.

I just found that my birthday is during the summer camp 😞

I'll be drunk before 00:30 😞
