Is that really what she thinks? I suspect that she is more concerned with your safety. Being at a party where this is going on is not putting yourself in a safe situation.When people are under the influence, whether it's alcohol or drugs, situations can easily become volatile and out of control. You might want to re-think why you really would want to be there with that going on.
Good luck

I think there is a hole lot more to this then what you have said - mom's dont just start thinking bad stuff about there own kids.
It may be a responsibility issue with her, concern for your choices ( as was sugjested ) or you past, Or you don't want to admit to what you think is fun...maybe she feels you have lived a sheltered life for all your 18 years.. .....What is your relationship with her like ? If it is good, then she should feel relitively safe even if your best friend is junky of the week. I say this be cause I am a mom and my son is 17, I know his friends and when they get into stuff they should not,,,,I have known some of his friend to take part in behaviors they shoud not , and maybe my son has tried this as well but he dose not do this now.... but I also know that I have confidence in him because of the choices he has made in the past and how he and I relate to one another - There are times he and his friends have been out till 2 am and his band has played in bars.... He is known to be in his 20's....but I can trust him - I know not to long ago when he was 14 - I did'nt trust him as far as I could throw him.... so I ask you to re examin your statement and see if there is something that would give your mom some peace of mind ( and you as well. ) are you going to summer collage cources, do you have a job ? Is there something that you both share ? Do you spend time togther ? You will need to find what it is and make the effort to ger there...if not move out. The bottom line is is your burden of proof. Good luck to you. My spell check is not working and I am a dyslexic sorry for spelling.

Try and convince her that you're not. You can even call up your friends and ask them to behave if possible. Don't be afraid.
