Monster Energy Drink
I am an avid coffee drinker. On a normal day I drink one to three cups of coffee at any time of the day and it never affects me. It doesn't give me energy, keep me awake or anything like that. The last time I had Monster energy drink I was sick after literally two sips. I got a terrible headache and ended up spending the rest of the night feeling miserable in my bed. I've only had half a Red Bull, at the most, and it has never done that to me, nor has it given me energy.
It's been about a year or so since my Monster experience and I want to give it a try and see if it will wake me up in the morning. Do you think it will actually give me energy or will it just make me sick?

I used to drink Monster... for about a week or two. Suddenly I got splitting headaches. Then, like you, I took a tiny amount (the amount of a BJ's free sample cup) and I was ruined for the rest of the day (pounding headache).
For reference, I also get those headaches from Orbit gum and similar headaches from my wheat/gluten allergy.

I am a monster drinker and I also get severe headaches. [So, it sometimes makes me sick]I would suggest that you should never drink monster on an empty stomach. If you eat breakfast before drinking any monster you will have more enegry vs. not eating anything. You will just crash once the caffiene is through your system.
I hope I've helped. (:

Honestly, the best thing you can do to wake yourself up in the morning is drink a glass of orange juice and go for a short jog.
You need to stop drinking caffeine if it isn't affecting you anymore, or if it's affecting you negatively. Your body has developed a tolerance for it, and too much caffeine is a BAD thing, even if you think it's not doing anything.
As for the Monster energy drink, there's probably something in it you're allergic to, or that doesn't agree with you, and I would either stay away from those drinks altogether.
If you need some supplement for energy, get B vitamins, or Zipfizz energy powder. I used to take a tube of that, mix it with a scoop of protein powder, drink it down, and go running. Zipfizz is amazing for energy. It's sugar free, as far as I remember, and doesn't actually have caffeine in it. In fact, I highly recommend Zipfizz for you. You can find it in any GNC, Vitamin Shoppe, or any of those places. Switch up your routine a little, your body will love you for it.

I wouldn't go back to that drink because they are bad for you. They have lots of sugar and calories in them and after you drink them you might get energy for a couple hours and then you will crash. Hope this helps!

I suggest you don't go back to Monster. If it made you sick before, it will probably do that again, and then you're left wondering why you drank it xD.
If coffee isn't doing you any good, I've actually read numerous places that eating an apple in the morning wakes you up faster than a cup of coffee, and it's completely good for you and gives you a lot of energy.
Energy drinks are good for if you want to get really energetic really fast, but only for like an hour or two. They really aren't the best if you want to wake up and be productive at school.
Fruits in the morning really help, and so does eating a full breakfast. Like cereal, toast, waffles, pancakes, etc.

I got to a point where I was drinking monsters like it was water. Did they give me energy, yes, but after an hour or two, I crashed and burned quickly! If you do choose to drink them, they have a new kind called Java. It consists of about 6 different flavors of coffee (irish blend, original, Loca Moca, etc). Try one of those instead of the regular monster. They are just as apt to give you energy and it will be a more familiar taste to you. I believe the cans are different shades of brown and they are sold pretty much as regularly as the Monster and LoCarb. I hope this helped out a little.
