One problem I faced when I came into AA was feeling like I was too young to get sober. People were always speaking about how they were "in and out of AA for 20 years" how they "were wild when they were young, like young people should be". A part of me felt unwelcome, although that could have been due to the paranoid, depressed mindset that I was in when I first came into the program. It is hard being young and sober, when all of your friends are still drinking and partying. Does anyone have a similar experience?
