Coffee and Caffeine FAQ

I recently experienced this. Actually just 3 days ago and am still feeling the effects of it. I had a major overdose, I had taken two caffine pills and had a couple of cups of coffee as well. I went and worked out breaking down the pills way to quickly and it sent me into a panic or anxiety attack. I had an extreme rapid heart rate, my breathing was uncontrollable, I was shaking very badly, I also had sharp pains in the back of my head, and a major feeling of my head being completely detached from my body ( I could not feel anything from my neck down no matter how much pressure I put on it). Since I have been out of the hospital I haven't slept but only a few hours over the past few days and I've been having a lot of trouble breathing at night, as if my airway closes up when my breathing slows and I also experience that same detached feeling from my body almost as if I were paralyzed. It is a very scary feeling and I'm hoping that since I've cut out the caffeine that maybe the symptoms will slowly get better. But, reality is this you really have to watch what your doing with caffeine it can kill you if you are not careful with it. I was happy to find this information on here, it does give me some enlightenment to what all is going on with me right now. It helps me much more than any of the doctors at my closest hospital. Thank you for posting thid it is very much appreciated!
