There oughta be a law!

The Mayo clinic says 12 oz of cola has 35mg of caffeine and a cup of coffee has 95-200mg. One Excedrin has 65mg. Most people take two at a time, as that is the recommended dosage for adults. So taking two Excedrin is 130mg of caffeine, or more than 3 sodas' worth, or one average cup of coffee's worth.

Aw damn it. No more Excedrin for me. That explains why I'm still getting headaches this far into trying to quit caffeine.
Lines:
I've heard they include the caffeine because it helps it get through your system faster? I don't know where I heard that, though, so it may be wrong.
Edith:
Tea has less caffeine than coffee and also has theobromine which has caffeine-like effects which could also help. If you can wean yourself onto weaker and weaker tea instead of soda/coffee, it could help. Cutting coffee cold turkey usually means you'll have massive headaches for about 2 weeks, but at the end of that time you should be symptom free, from what I've read.
nekowafer:
I don't drink any coffee or tea, just soda, pretty much. I'm trying to drink a lot more water to hopefully make me feel less miserable but it is not doing so well.
TOBAL passive-aggressive behaviour from adults who clearly know better in a professional setting. Or, really, anywhere ever.
