There are tons of medications out there, and sometimes it takes a while until you find what's right for you. It could be a frustrating but useful process.
As soon as there's a get together (young or old professionals, college students, etc.), booze is involved. It hurts everybody, but this is part of the western culture. They ban smokers from bars, but they don't ban alcoholics.
Antabuse: I've heard scary and crazy stuff about it like "Patients should be warned to avoid alcohol in disguised form, i.e., in sauces, vinegars, cough and cold mixtures, and even aftershave lotions. They should also be warned that reactions may occur with alcohol up to 14 days after ingestion of disulfiram." I'm curious to hear about people on antabuse.
AA being open to everybody, I'm not sure if there are some meetings geared toward young professionals. Would anybody on this board have any suggestions?
