I see that point, but I think Stevie could be hailing her second self here like she does in SOTM. After all her alter ego in SOTM was supposed to be her sister and take care of her because Stevie was not taking very good care of herself. So, I think when she says:

oohh
Missionary
Well I will be different
When I get back
And you can take all of the credit


She is really talking to herself via this twin she made up in the 70's. That makes the song far heavier and deeper to me.

You say everything's fine, baby
But sometimes at night


I think this is about her wanting the coke and high of the adulation she experienced at a concert while on it. At night and alone in the Betty Ford Center, she was missing that.
