I just did the test and got 24 lol, you only need 14 to meet the criteria. I think there are things you can do to help, and managing your environment, being careful about the company you keep etc.

You mention bars a couple of times and I find those uncomfortable places generally speaking so avoid them. Those people sound loud and brash to me - I wouldn't mix with them personally. Finding better friends who prefer quieter environments would probably help you.

It sounds like you were going along with what they wanted? How about you think more about what suits you best?
