Would This Be Considered Overdosing?

.....I just drank around 15-18 cups of coffee in less than 2 hours......is that an overdose? And should I get medical help? I don't know if anyone will read this in time to help...but I thought I'd give it a shot.

I don't know about overdosing on coffee, but I am almost sure that, that much caffein could certainly cause some problems, so if you are O.K., than please don't do that again, if it were me, I would be flying off the walls.

That is a lot. I find if I drink too much tea I get palpitations because of the caffiene. Why did you have so much?
