Extrovert unlocked: turns out it's just alcoholism

A Reddit confession post from r/TrueOffMyChest where a 24-year-old woman describes a long-term pattern of consuming vodka throughout her workday from a water bottle to appear extroverted and functional. She details her practice since age 16, masking techniques, and rationalization that her personality is actually alcohol-fueled.

I'm always semi drunk at work.
Confession
I 24f have a water bottle that I fill up with vodka and take with me everywhere I go, even work. During my shifts I'm lowkey sipping on my vodka and I will usually finish the whole thing before I finish work. I have a back up flask incase, but I usually don't need it.
I actually started doing this back in high school when I was 16. Teachers and fellow students always thought I was drinking water.
Nobody suspects a thing because I've always got chewing gum, mints and sprays to mask it. Plus the vodka scent isn't as strong as other alcohol. In my opinion anyway.
People think I'm super extroverted and friendly, but really I'm just semi drunk all the time.
