Wow...the placebo effect at work. I've been to Thailand and I love the Redbull there, however, I prefer the other Thai energy drink which is similar called M-150. The Thai market is flooded with this stuff; I almost laughed reading "Energy surging through my veins!" haha... it's not THAT strong. Drink about 6 and you'll walk a few miles though, I can vouch for that! But as for being TOO strong, yeah right. It's sold like a vitamin drink over there. The only main difference in the formula is the addition of carbonation.
