It definitely isn't abnormal to experience excessive anxiety when others who are 17 or younger are drinking around you. It puts you in the position of 'peer pressure' in which you feel you are supposed to drink so that you can 'fit in' to the group. It also puts you in the position where you could get an MIP (minor in possession) charge. So, no, it's not abnormal to have anxiety in this type of situation.
