Dangerous: Looks like you have a lot of medical problems for a 35-year-old. Stop eat methylfenidate paracetamol not kill you. Stop eat levotyroxin xarelto could be fatal. Can't live without thyroid hormone; stop eat you could die. If stop eat xarelto could have pulmonary embolism, also could kill you. Stop eat gabapentin not kill you, but still very bad to stop eat any medicine without ask your doctor.

I don't recommend it: Don't randomly stop your medicines, it could be dangerous to your health. Call your doctor, work with him/her about a plan to try to reduce or change your plan if you don't feel well on these medications. But stopping can have catastrophic results.

I've seen it happen: I'd be the first to support your quest to get well without medications. I'm a big fan of "the natural method." However, it really depends on the gravity of the situations which got you prescribed in the 1st place. Therefore, my best advice is to sit down & have a HEART TO HEART talk with your doctor. Tell them that you'd like to beat whatever this is without meds. Ask them for guidance & support.
