Finding it very hard to quit.

I quit earlier this year and lasted 3 months, it went well, I forgot alcohol existed for the most part during this time. I relapsed, ended up drinking 9 beers per night. I tapered down to 2-3 beers just before bed, per night for about the last 3 weeks. I was nearly off it the last few weeks, I've been busy. I don't feel much after those beers. But I found it difficult to make the final step to nothing.
It gets worse. I havent been feeling well the last few days. I have a flu. I am getting hit with heavy cravings to drink. Which tonight where so strong I gave in and bought beer.
I can stop drinking, but I usually end up back on it eventually. I'm worried about going to AA. It's too stressful for me. I'm afraid the people there will be much older and I would relate better to people my own age, I'm 25.
