Yes, I think so. I drank a lot of (diet) cola at some point, like 1 gallon a day. Never got any issues similar to the ones I got from coffee.

A gallon of diet coke has less caffeine than one Starbucks venti drip coffee (~380mg vs ~400mg).

How much coffee do/did you drink per day?

Like 3-5 regular cups a day (not Starbucks). Then after two weeks even 1 cup became too much. Switching to a gallon of cola then didn't cause any problems.
