Genuine question, am i an alcoholic?

I am just 18 years old and i feel very goofy for asking this but i want to put a genuine label on this because i dont think i should be joking about being an alcoholic if im not. Ok so i drink basically every day of the week, more often than not at least. When i drink with my friends (like 2-3 times a week) i have to stop myself frim drinking so much but even then i dont just stop myself at some point i just wait till i get home and go to the nearby grocery store and buy a bottle of gin and some tonic and keep drinking when i get back home. I drink to get drunk and usualy drunk about a small bottle of gin. I get drunk. Yeah thats about it im sorry im writing this while im drunk so im sorry if this is weird and cringe. This has been happening for a good few months now and idm if its relevant but im gonna say it just incase if it is i have chronic depression so yeah
