Without knowing much about you, my advice is that if you and your Psychiatrist are confident about the diagnosis of ADHD, then you should continue medications until your doctor advises, continue following up with him, and also continue other approaches such as therapy and diet modification.
Once an adequate time has passed, you can discuss with your Psychiatrist about GRADUALLY reducing medications.
Next Steps
Discuss with your Psychiatrist, continue medicines for now.
