Coping with Peer Pressure Hypnosis Script

Peer pressure can be relentless. If you feel pressured by people to do things you are uncomfortable doing there are many ways to respond.

The desire to fit in and feel like you are a part of a group is perfectly normal and many people feel this way. Peer pressure is that feeling you have to do something to fit in, be accepted or be respected.

It can very difficult to deal with, especially for young people.

Peer pressure can be overt like friends telling you to do something or less direct like friends joking around about what you're not doing.
