I just started my anti-anxiety/depressant medication and I'll be going on a date next week for happy hour. How do I kindly let my date know ahead of time that I'd prefer not to drink alcohol as typically expected in the type of environment?

I didn't want to do dinner because it's too formal right now. Just hanging out and getting to know each other, but still don't want to seem lame because I can't drink due to my medication (which I haven't disclosed to anyone at all, not even family).

Any suggestions? I'm stuck 😑

On that note, how do I tell my family and friends (some who can be judgemental at times)? I've been on medication before but everyone thinks I'm fine and ok without it.
