Cyrano is right. Only you can decided. Generally when people start wondering if they have a problem, they might just have a problem. It doesn't necessarily have to be the amount you drink, but when happens when you drink. Blackouts, vomiting (to drink more), finding out from friends the next day the things you might have said etc.

For alcoholics, its an allergy. We can't drink just one. Once we have that first one, the obsession kicks in and we can't stop. One is too many and a thousand isn't enough.

Its only for you to decide for yourself though. I have a friend who got sober when he was 15. He's got 10 years sober now. I got sober at 26. One of my other best friends got sober at 20. The girl I sponsor just got sober and is 21. Some get sober in their 30's and later. It all just depends on when someone hits a bottom. It doesn't have to be an exreme low of a bottom either. I was pretty high bottom but I managed to stop it because I knew I'd only go farther down.

Here's the classic set of questions asked that might help you see if you could have a problem. Link to Questions Answer them honestly and you might get some good insight into yourself.
