Help With Adderall Side Effects!?


Hey guys, I’m a 16 year old boy living in New York. I have been diagnosed with depression, anxiety issues, and ADHD. I take 150 mg of Trazodone every night for insomnia and depression, 100 mg of Zoloft each morning for the depression and anxiety, as well as 40 mg of Adderall each morning for the ADHD. Basically, the issue is that I’m experiencing a lack of appetite as a side effect of the Adderall, and it’s really frustrating. I’m 5’9″ and before taking these meds I was already pretty skinny at 125 pounds. Now, the lack of appetite has me skipping meals daily, to the point where I basically only eat 1 small meal every day. I have basically lost all enjoyment out of eating anything because it is a hassle for me to force myself to eat when I am not hungry at all. Now, I am 107 pounds and at the same height and it is really worrying me. I have been on the other meds for about 3-4 months and Adderall for only 2.5 months. I am a varsity cross country, winter track, and spring track athlete and this problem is really affecting my performance as well as worrying my parents a lot. I now have lost so much muscle (I didn’t have much fat before) and I become extremely fatigued and worn out whenever I run more than 2 miles. I feel so ashamed and I quit spring track this year. At the moment, I just stay after school in the library doing schoolwork instead of running track and I lie to my parents about running at all. I don’t know what to do. Maybe I can switch my Adderall to the patch form? I’m not sure if the mode of delivery will make a difference, but I know that the patch form has a more temporary effect. Please give me any advice you can. Don’t be afraid to use complex terminology, as I am above average intelligence and Biology is my niche. Thanks for your time.
