redbull and coffee give me temporary "highs" and i hate it when i drink them. i mean i enjoy my cup of coffee in the morning but i don't like it that i go for a second cup in the afternoon. i just wish i had more natural energy and didn't need it.

my mom buys these "pep" pills from the drug store and she got me using them once in a while. it's all natural stuff like ginseng, etc.. not caffeine or anything and i didn't get jittery at all when i took them.

also, yesterday i stopped at a friend's house and he was in the middle of making pills (he is starting his own line of supplements) and he gave me a few. i took one today and it worked. i didn't get jittery or anything but all of a sudden i just wasn't tired any more and i was focused. i'm gonna hit him up for a bottle of that shit...they are very similar to the pep pills my mom gets.

I'm the type of person that gets drowsy/sleepy at least once throughout the day, no matter what I'm doing, studying/driving (yeah..I know, yikes!), it doesn't matter even if I've had a good nights rest. I used to drink coffee/redbull to stay up but it always sucked. I still felt pretty drowsy mentally, still constant yawning and stretching and what not...the caffeine would just keep me physically awake, not let me close my eyes. Plus I drink a lot of water, and I hate how caffeine dehydrates you.

Luckily I've found a good solution. Taking a 10-15 min nap has me feeling alert, awake, and refreshed...and I can go back to doing w/e I needed to. Works awesome.

I drink the blue Monster too and it works well for me. It hits me instantly and I feel energized for maybe a couple hours. However, it makes my hands shake and also I can't focus on things as well.

I don't drink Red Bull because its too expensive given the can size. I actually like the taste of most energy drinks so I prefer a bigger can to enjoy it.

diet rockstar ftw, i just love the taste of it and it gives me a bit of energy for a few hours.

I must add that I love Redbull girls. <3

i love red bull. i could drink it all day.

Depends. Usually no.

A couple of times though I've felt a bit of an effect for about 20 minutes before i dropped back again.

Another time I was drinking it with vodka, after quite a lot I went back to my hotel room and spent the next 3+ hours walking around the room cos I couldn't sleep.

neither of those were Red Bull though.

If you can get hold of it, try Kratingdaeng, the Thai Red Bull variant. Tastes way better, works way better.
