1) Risky behavior: Peer pressure can lead individuals to engage in risky or harmful activities that they may not have participated in otherwise, such as experimenting with drugs or alcohol, engaging in unprotected sex, or breaking the law.
2) Low self-esteem: Conforming to peer pressure can result in individuals compromising their personal values or beliefs, which can ultimately lower their self-esteem and self-confidence. Constantly seeking approval from others can lead to feelings of inadequacy or constantly comparing oneself to others.
3) Academic decline: Peer pressure can also negatively impact academics by influencing individuals to prioritize socializing or engaging in unproductive activities over studying or completing assignments. Consequently, this may result in a decline in academic performance.
4) Mental health issues: The pressure to fit in or conform to societal norms can lead to increased stress, anxiety, or depression. Individuals may feel the need to constantly please others or fear rejection, which can significantly impact their mental well-being.
