Okay, so I threw in those last two.
3. Not due to any
physical or other
mental disorder, such as an
Anxiety Disorder.
I, personally, consume about twice this amount of
caffeine per day, but I think you have to get your 250mg all at once to
experience the above
symptoms, since I usually only experience a few of them. Perhaps, though, I have grown a
powerful tolerance.
