Not sure I got your point.

Those people who pressure others to drink just want to bring others down with them

Sure, I would just avoid those people in general, since they don't respect me - and it's has nothing to do with alcohol. But than again I don't have any troubles saying no to alcohol.

I have a problem with alcohol but I would never force someone else to drink. I also don't know anyone who pressures me to drink when I don't want to because I don't hang out with shitty people

That's why social drinkers have such a hard time quitting, cuz they have a bunch of friends that are only their friends cuz of drinking. In a way I feel blessed that I prefer to drink alone
