Im a senior in highschool ive been prescribed adderal for almost a year now, and ive been checked so many times by doctors for heart problems(cardiogram,ekg,etc..) and lots of blood work done,and the result is that i could not be healthier, the dok says as i have a completely healthy diet, workout constantly, and am an athlete. I also do suffer from anxiety/panic disorder, in which im prescribed xanax. lately thoguh, somtiems ill feel like im sittin there, and all teh sudden ill get those pains in my left arm or in my body, and automatically i think about the symptoms of heart attack or stroke, and i start to freak out. I take 20mg-40mg adderal xr or 20mg xr and 2 10mg apmhetimie salts. Im guesing this is just a build up of anxiety as a side affect of adderal? Wat i do to chill out if i feel like im havin a heart attack is i do som intense cardio like HITT or som fast jump rope to convince my self im not dying if im able to performsuch tasks.

I don’t know if this will help you but it helps me with anxiety about being ill. It’s an affirmation, it’s used to distract the mind from fearful thoughts of being ill. Not sure if it would work for you but if you would like to try it…. Repeat to yourself “Body heal thy self.” Don’t expect it to work right away, give it time.

Maybe if anxiety and panic are issues for you, then stimulants may not be the answer, talk to your doctor. Using a benzodiazepine drug in a polypharmacy setting to counteract the effects of the stimulant may not be the best situation for you.. again talk to your doctor.
