Damned straight IamRising!
I am so glad you are realizing this at such a young age. I am 28 and I was just a couple of years older than you when my drinking started to become a serious issue. You can do whatever you want with your life and you don't need alcohol there with you, no matter what everyone else is doing. Pursue your own goals and stay true to yourself. Glad you are here.
More power to you!
