Teenage alcoholic

I think I'm an alcoholic. I'm 18 and I live in the United States where the drinking age is 21. I enjoy drinking and when I'm not drinking I feel unfulfilled. I can't wait until I can drink again...unless I'm hungover. I'm not physically addicted...I don't have seizures when I abstain. I just feel great when I drink, it's hard to explain. I feel kind of numb. I don't know what to do. I know this is bad. My boyfriend is 21 and sometimes he buys me alcohol. I know this is wrong, can someone please offer me helpful feedback?

    Stop. No more alcohol. Not even a small glass..nope, not anything, because a "small glasses" just fail to happen.

    Stop now, BEFORE it gets to the seizure stage. Mental dependance isn't harmless. You don't need alcohol. Tell your boyfriend not to buy it for you anymore.

    Switch to weed and weed only. Cannabis is a life-saver.

    actually he makes a good point, i was a raging alki by 17 and went into rehab at 19, my kidneys and liver packed up on me and i was in hospital all the time, when i stopped drinkin a was having tragic seizures throwing up a whole lot and became seriously ill, it wasnt until about 2 weeks later that i started to feel better.
    mate its all good enjoying get mashed up all the time but there are some serious consequences, i live in england and i been able to buy beer from shops and pubs since i was 15. i wish you all the best mate, but i would say if you can stop drinking without having sezures then i suggest you try and stop now before it becomes alot more difficult and painfull.
    thats comin from experience, im only 22 so i still have the occasional beer but they are few and far between.
    good luck with it mate

    There's plenty of other countries where it's legal to drink at age 18 so the problem isn't in you drinking. The problem is that you are unhappy without drinking. Yes this is alcoholism and you should go to AA meetings or something of the sort. If you don't try to fix it now, it'll only get worse.
