I can assure you that nearly every one of the few million people that have gotten sober in AA have had the same trepidations before walking through the door of their first meeting. Nobody wakes up one day and just decides to become an AA member because they found it easy to stay sober, and nearly all of us look for a hundred ways to 'be different' and not fit in with what we think AA is.
I can tell you in my town (pop. ~50,000), there is a very active, very enthusiastic group of young sober people in AA, and a couple of meetings/groups centered on young people in AA. Although I'm not 'one of them' I count many of them among my friends and identify closely with them in terms of alcoholism and the solution we have found.
