I think a lot of us have been in a similar situation.
Is drinking causing problems in your life? If so, you might want to take a look around here and do some reading. Alcoholism is a progressive disease, and it will get worse, unless you stop. I should also add that many of us have had to make big changes in our lives as we recover. I had remove some friends and family members from my life. Recovery meant putting myself first and that was something I was not used to doing.
