I would like to know why it is that when i drink "RED BULL" or anyother energy drink - i fall asleep?

My husband & I have tried this with every energy drink & about 30minutes after i drink it - im fast asleep in a deep, deep sleep. Can anyone help shed some light on this? I cant find anything on the net?

Thanks guys :O)

first of all - thank you all for your suggestions & answers - they are appreicated. As for ADD & ADHD - i dont agree that they exist. I am no doctor so im not going to argue with anyone about it but when i was growing up there was no such thing & i believe that diagnosing people, especially children is a cop out. From what i understand ADD & ADHD 'sufferers' arent able to concentrate - AT ALL! I have studied full time & have a very successful job - if this was the case i doubt i would have been able to study & become so successful.
I do not drink any caffine as in tea or coffee - it makes me sick literally. I also do not drink anywhere near enough water . Colour3's answer makes the most sense to me - various drinks with loads of sugar in them have the same affect on me - i put it down to sugar over-load.
Thanks again to EVERYONE for their suggestions & answers. I'll be staying away from energy drinks & heading to my naturopath!
Thanks guys & gals :O)

It's called idiosyncrasy. The definition is an individual hypersensitiveness to a food or drug. Most of those energy drinks have caffeine in them and it is most likely the caffeine that you are hypersensitive to. It's the same thing with people who get hyper when the take benadryl.

It's nothing to worry about, however I would go to like a health food store and ask about something all natural.
