I get the same, I turned 18 a few months ago and am still in High School...sorta.
I was in a job where I was payed less then a woman who was older then me, which was frusterating, but then I realised how ignorant my employer was, so I quit once I got a higher paying job. At school it seems like a lot of people assume they can walk all over your opinions and thoughts because "you don't know any better yet" which kinda shows how they don't know any better.

Just because you're 18 doesn't mean you have to party. I did all of that when I was 15/16 and got bored of it reaaallly fast. If someone gives you a hard time for not going out and partying brush them off. Maybe you want to look at making some new friends, who are a little bit older perhaps? Sometimes even 2 or 3 years is enough for the whole "LYK OMG EYE LIV AWAY FRUM MAH PAR-RENTALS LEZ GET CRUNK!!!1!1!111" attitude.

There's always going to be people who wanna party and people who discredit you in the "real world". The way to solve it? Find the people who don't and make them your friends.
