Hey-
Honestly, at this point for you, I wouldn't be concerned about it. Keep it in your mind, know it's there and there is always the possibility for addiction. But I think me, along with most of my friends who drink, if we see a bottle we'll want it. But, it doesn't mean we're going to let it take control of our lives.
The biggest thing you can do to be careful, is make sure you never drink to make yourself feel better. Drinking is something that you have to do in moderation, or it can take over your life. But for many people it can be a once in a while thing. Don't drink every night, don't drink everything you see, and learn to say no when you need to.
If you're still concerned, and even if you aren't it's probably a good idea to talk to someone about how you're feeling about this who is kind of close to you. Someone you trust, and who would notice if things were getting out of hand and they would actually confront you about it. Me and my friends all have agreements that with alcohol or drugs, we will tell each other if one of us is taking it too far, and it's happened before.
Good luck. If you need anything let me know.
Maria.
