I used to get chronic headaches back in high school. Mt Dew was pretty much all I drank at the time, and occasionally Sprite. The headache issue went on for years, to the point my dad was trying to talk me into going to a neurologist, but I refused.

In college, I was too lazy/cheap to buy Mt Dew, or soda or any kind and just drank water. I had a week long headache from the caffeine withdrawal. After it passed, I was fine. I can count on one hand the number of times I drink caffeine each year, and headaches are extremely infrequent. I couldn’t tell you the last time I had one.

If you are drinking energy drinks regularly, it could be as simple as caffeine withdrawal.
