This doesn’t really surprise me. I’ve noticed for a long time that an energy drink or other caffeine source hits different than a cup of coffee.
When I used to work late at a nursing home, I’d sometimes have a cup of decaf for a pick-me-up (that’s all they had). Just the ritual and feeling that I was drinking coffee was enough to give me a small boost, even though logically it didn’t make sense.

I never felt like caffeine did much for me. I would down a 2liter of mountain dew while studying in the evening and then go right to sleep back in college.

Caffeine can actually make some people with ADHD sleepy. I’m not sure how well it’s been studied, but it’s quite a common reason for people to end up on the path to get a diagnosis for adult ADHD.

I drink a monster every morning and it barely does anything. Then again, I’m on drugs that make me sleepy.

You also drink a monster every morning. Tolerance to caffeine is a thing
