28, having blackouts not sure if I am an addict

...See more I had blackouts from drinking many times before but I always told myself oh I was in my early 20s that's just being reckless and young, but I'm getting older now and I'm thinking this behavior isn't right. Recently I've gone out a few times with friends and ended up saying some stupid/mean things and ruining my relationships. This hasn't been like this since a very hard time when I was 22 and my ex was killed. Now I can't figure out what could have triggered me to actually be blacking out every time I go out now and doing these things I don't remember. Is this a sign that I have an addiction problem? Am I going to have to stop drinking altogether ? Honestly the thought of that seems hard, because socially I like to have drinks with friends or having wine at dinner. This is eating away at me and very scary to think I might have a problem/feeling regret for these things I did that I can't remember.
