Oh she's said that before, and while she admits taking pain meds (which wouldn't count as recreational, and with the injuries and all would be legit prescriptions) I think she's fooling herself if she thinks that they can't possibly do anything that other people would notice and she would act the exact same with or without them.I mean I wouldn't want to be on TV when I've taking medication after a surgery, and those weren't for recreational purposes.
I also wonder what she counts as "drunk" with alcohol. Some people don't count tipsy, but even a little tipsy can make a huge difference in behavior. You don't need to be falling down drunk for people to notice you are more than your usual level of goofy.
