[2019] Is it just me or does thirst meter go down much faster than it did in previous patch?

It used to take maybe 10 minutes before i would get thirsty but i swear now i'm thirsty even faster and i didn't even had any chems on me. so don't get why would Bethesda do this when it's already pain in the ass to drink every 10 minutes and now it's more like drink every 5 minutes. Kinda ruins the fun of the game i mean it's not like i drink water every 30 minutes at home either.. there should be some ways to increase your thirst and hunger meter or something bc this is rediculous having to fight enemies and then every couple minutes hear that water driplet sound and see the red line and then stop fighting and then going to safe place and quickly check if you got anything to drink and usually it's not water i have so i end up drinking vodka and inert flux instead. So Bethesda please could you change it back to previous version? Would be much appriciated.
