Let me start off by saying that i was addicted to caffeine for 10 years. Yes im only 18. It's pretty much only drug that is addictive and isn't controlled by any kind of law. I had sleeping problems as kid and now i know why. Im not saying caffeine screw up my life but it had some effect. I think the new energy drinks are good thing. Why? Because they raise awareness off people that caffeine isn't something that kids should drink. Im not saying caffeine is bad thing or that it should be banned, but giving it age limit is something that should be done. Small dose of caffeine raises awareness and makes you more awake, but big doses are addictive and cause withdrawal. In other words caffeine should be k18 like rest of the legal drugs.
