    The student, of Stanley, County Durham, was taken to the University Hospital of North Durham, where doctors confirmed she had overdosed on caffeine.

    Re: Maybe I should cut back...

    because I can't get to the stage where I "overdose" on caffiene

    I'd be in hospital being pumped full of drugs before that would happen

    Re: Maybe I should cut back...

    I think I'd be dead after that many double espressos! Once, years ago I had 3 triples (so 9) in a few hours just because we were messing about at work, but I've been really sensitive to caffine ever since. I can still feel the effect of the coffee I drank at 8am today!

    Re: Maybe I should cut back...

    Depends what the definition of "overdose" is

    : An excessive dose, especially of a narcotic.

    A can of coke isn't an excessive dose... therefore I don't overdose, I am purely intolerant to it.

    But I see where you're coming from.
