no rush from energy drinks, will alcohol effect me in the same way?

McLovin asked:

I am a 15 year old male. i once read that if you don’t get a rush from energy drinks, your body has a high caffine tallarence. i once had 4 liquid ice energy drinks in under an hour, another time i had two monster energy drinks and a no fear energy drink in about 3 and a half hours. both times i felt absolutely nothing what so ever. There are also plenty of other times i’ve had just one energy drink and felt nothing.

So i was woundering if it would be the same case for alcohol, when i grow up, would i need to consume very large amounts of alcohol to get drunk?

I think that caffeine and alcohol are different.
Caffeine has no effect on me either, but I can drink very little and get buzzed very easy.
It just depends, everybody is different.

Caffeine and alcohol are two different liquids that effect you completely different. Alcohol once consumed will travel through your blood stream thinning it. Where as caffeine does not have this effect at all. Also remember that caffeine is an upper and alcohol is a downer.

Energy drinks are just vitamins (maybe), caffeine (probably) and sugar. It’s really not that different from any other soda or candy.
People who have a decent amount of sugar and caffeine in their diet wont get the “false energy” that people who have a more “pure” diet.

Caffeine is a stimulant and alcohol is a depressant. People who consume a lot of alcohol wont feel the effects of one beer as much as someone who never drank before.

If you do decide to start drinking (when you’re old enough) don’t assume that it wont affect you because energy drinks don’t.
