Trying to explain alcoholism to non-alcoholics is like talking to a brick wall, they will never understand it.
It is often times just human nature to look for support from those closest to us, but when it comes to addiction, that isn't the case.
Going to rehab was a good move on your part, but drinking afterwards is not and something went wrong with your recovery.
Have you followed up afterwards with regular AA meetings? Outpatient rehab? an addiction therapist? If not, then you really need to for a support system that does understand alcoholism to keep you on the wagon.
