Hello,
You are on
Adderall prescribed for treating ADHD. You are 15 years and the dose prescribed is quite high. You are
overweight and hence you are suggested to do regular walking in the morning and evening. Get connected with a physical therapist. Do stretch exercises and switch to boiled food for a couple of days. You can take food cooked in olive oil. Take more fruits, berries and veggies. Avoid full fat dairy products, packaged food, oily, junk food, fried food,
trans fat, refined flour, sugar, carbohydrates, etc.
Take well cooked whole grains, lean meat, fresh fish, salads and stay away from addictions if any. When your weight gets controlled, tremors will also get controlled. Take food rich in vitamin B6, B12,
folic acid, etc. You are experiencing side effects of Adderall. Adderall may cause side effects like tremors,
increased heart rate and blood pressure, blurry vision,
restlessness and irritability, wide pupils, etc. Get connected to your treating doctor for a follow up clinical examination so that medicine that suits you better can be prescribed.
Taking cognitive behavior therapy will help you to overcome ADHD naturally, it will help you to improve concentration and focus, help better task completion, help to control hyperactive behavior, it will help to listen with attention and follow directions. You can take the help of medicines but do not get dependent on it as all medicines have side effects. Stay away from addictions if any. Switch to healthy lifestyle. Stay encouraged. You will be able to overcome ADHD. Just relax. If needed you can get
nerve conduction velocity test done to assess the degree of damage to the nerves. You will be treated accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
