My brother had a brain aneurysm (that he survived) at like age 35 probably due to drinking Red Bulls. I think I've only drank one or maybe a half of one. I thought they tasted awful.

Now I used to get Monster Energy drinks relatively frequently if I ran out of coffee in the Keurig. At least until I saw that Facebook video of the guy who found a dead rat inside the bottom of the can.

drank a lot of monster drinks one week during finals and by the end my body just rejected everything and I vomited profusely for a day or so. Haven't touched another energy drink in several years .

Many years back was going through a crazy time at my then job and would pick up one for the 4-5am wake up to get to the office early. I'd probably gag now if I took one just from the bad memory association. Pretty much did the trick though.

I drink one every morning like coffee. If I'm dragging in the afternoon I'll have in around 1:30.

I mix a packet of Kroger Energy mix into about 18 oz of water in the morning before I go to the gym.

12 oz redbulll only has like 115mg of caffeine, less than a cup of coffee so if anyone tells you they get super jacked on it tell them they are stupid.





I don't drink it that regularly, but I'll grab a sugar free (realize the artificial sweetener isn't good for me) red bull in place of coffee. I like coffee, but feel like I have coffee breath all day at work, plus I'd spend half the day on the shitter.

I'd say maybe 2 or 3 days a week I'll grab one. It's not as loaded with caffeine as people think.

Usually adderall and coffee every morning. Monster or 5 hour on the weekends. It will most likely kill me.

She has so much energy in the mornings that I want to rip out her vocal cords. She is all over the place and says she can't focus. And then she crashes hard every afternoon. We've told her she may want to lay off the energy drinks.

Drink coffee and get a prescription for phentermine, it's safer for your organs.

Used to do a 5-hour energy every now and then while traveling, but I haven't in several years.

I've never done the energy drinks.

None.

And I cut out any and all caffine or any other stimulants as well.

I've never even tried any kind of energy drink. Caffeine just doesn't have a noticeable effect on me.
