are you familiar with the alternatives to 12-Step? depending on your geographical area there may be non-AA face-to-face meetings available.
ultimately it's up to you not to drink, whether you continue to go to Rehab or not..
If you do go back, realize it for what it is, and be grateful that you're one of the people who checked themselves in rather than being coerced.
