    Oh jeez, had WAY WAY WAY TOO MUCH caffeine and now my individual molecules are starting to resonate...

    Is there any quick fix, short of doing laps around the planet?

    Well, there are those who say drinking coffee helps sober up after beer, so of course, beer should help you with the caffeine. Just go drink a six pack!

    No personal experience, but this site offers a bunch of suggestions:

    - lots of water
    - magnesium
    - peppermint tea
    - modest alcohol
    - smoking (if you smoke)
    - milk/carrots/water

    Water yourself down, flush out the coffee.

    Half-life approx 4 hours so you should be good in 8-12 hours no matter how toxic.

    I would suggest enjoying the resonation. Many people pay big bucks to get into that state. I'm pretty sure that a buch of caffeine has less negative affects on the human body as does oh maybe a 1/4 Oz. of cocaine.

    Well, when I drink vodka and Red Bull it sort of balances itself out.

    I took a psychological measurement class that counteracted near-lethal amounts of caffeine. maybe you could enroll in that course

    I did sleep...very poorly. I spent the morning drifting around the bedroom like a helium balloon going flat, riding the warm currents of beer farts and the occasional choking snore.

    Used half a roll of duct tape to position my face in a place that wasn't in proximity to the floor.

    Mope to and fro...now...relapse! Woo hoo!

    That would do it! I was an accountant for several years and I drank Diet Coke like water and it never affected me at work, barely kept me awake in fact.
