I'm glad you are seeking some help this time. I found that having someone to feel accountable to helped me not drink in those early weeks. I can understand not wanting to do the group thing, I never prescribed to that either but it was seeing a Psychiatrist once a week for 10 months that really helped me. 6 months in and I started to feel odd going to him so I backed off to twice a month and then stopped all together. I never looked back after that.
I remember telling him that I didn't want to feel like alcohol was all I revolved around and a daily or weekly group session can make you feel that way. But having that one on one time with a "professional" made me feel like I would really be a loser if I gave in so I didn't and it worked.
