I will add to what Heidi has said, by pointing out that social life at University does not mean you have to drink alcohol. I did not start drinking until much later in my Uni life and had soft drinks or cordials or water when out with friends. I still went out, I still socialised, but did not drink alcohol.
I think it is for you to decide which you think is better for you - it may be that counsellor or therapy helps enough, but if not, do not be put of the use of medication just because of the alcohol consumption being more limited.
