Do you ever feel like you're locked in a cage and everyone around you is contributing at it?

I think my life is very restrictive in some manner but that isn't entirely on my fault. My parents were very strict with me compared to my sister (i am the firstborn). In addition to that, i studied a lot for university and got a degree and i'm getting my master degree now, what i feel sometimes is that i want to take a long break and just have fun at nights. It's a thing i'm craving more and more but i have no idea how to start this at all. The major problem is also that my parents, despite me being 22 now, still ask me TO NOT GO OUT AT NIGHT ALONE. This is a thing i spoke to them many times but they still insist on this. So how do i do that? How do i finally exit this cage without my parents noticing and win over my own introvert approach (mind you, i hardly think of myself as introvert, since i just prefer not to speak to people who i don't think they're worth my time, so is more of a consequence)?
