>A high-functioning alcoholic (HFA) is a person that maintains jobs and relationships while exhibiting alcoholism.[1]
She maintains her job in a professional way despite being an alcoholic, thus she qualifies as a functioning alcoholic, her inner emotional state is irrelevant.

Most of Japan's working population would qualify as "functioning alcoholics" really. It's practically required by the culture.

Does smoking a blunt by yourself on your day off make you a pothead?

>>135932461
Considering the situation she lives in I'd say yes. It's a post apocalyptic world and she has nowhere else to go.
