Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This is false as any number of things could have an influence on someone's mental wellbeing. The result of someone's mental stability being disrupted in ways such as stress. Friends could "peer" pressure or influence someone into trying out a alcoholic beverage and someone could have a very low tolerance for alcohol. If someone influences someone to drink alcohol and become addicted to a specific beverage, this would be an example of someones ability to influence someone. Someone's surroundings or environment can have an influence as it can take a toll on someone which creates impulses to "take all their problems away". The media can have an major impact on whether someone decides to drink as mentioned before, the media has the capability to have either a negative or positive impact. The media's influence overall on someone's life could turn out horribly or make them prosper. Those unfortunatley stucks in the wits of this stress and all the drama of the media may choose to "escape it by discovering a new way of dealing with it-- alcohol or "drinking".

Therefore, the answer to this would be false.
