You should go 1 week without any, see if you are or not
I can go without it, that was my point.
I do like a good cup of coffee but if i don't have any I don't get the shakes and don't feel the need for it.

I would say Im more addicted to the process of it all - as I get up and have a red bull first thing, much like people get up and have a coffee. So when I dont have one it feels strange.
I dont get the shakes or anything though

It's dehydration that will make you feel tired. None of these 'energy' drinks will help you sort that one out.

I used to have a few cans a day when I was at college a couple of years ago . I didnt notice any changes to my body or whatever though Just liked the taste. I stopped drinking them because they got so expensive

overuse can lead to chronic nervousness, "jittery" extremeties, increased heart rate, and insomnia. Everyday use of Red Bull, coffee, or other energy drinks can also lead to caffeine addiction, which has an extremely unpleasant withdrawl accompanied with headaches, irritablility, and decreased performance.
