Hehe, to be honest, I only started drinking them a few months back, a friend got me one at college when getting her lunch and well.. it was "Monster Energy" if I remember right, I'd never had one before and haha.. we had a class trip that day into the city to gather photos/video for a project I was bouncing off the walls of the bus, running around the city like a mad man and was done an hour before everyone else, now... it takes a good 3-4 cans of the stuff to even have an effect on me shortly followed by crashing out with a horrible headache.

Your story is very common. Walk into any AA/NA room and you can hear the same tale:

Turned on to your drug of choice by a friend who passed it off as harmless - have a great time with the drug the first few times, then you discover that you need more of the drug to get the same high, eventually doing more and more of the drug and it stops being fun - then comes the terrible blackouts/crashes/pains and misery.

Granted yours is a legal drug, but you are pretty much following the same patterns of addiction that we see in drug/alcohol use.

You might think I am joking about addiction here, I'm not.
