Some answers depend on the context.

It's more common to say 'get tired'.
'Get back to normal' is correct. 'Go back' is usually associated with a place.
'Try' and 'attempt' are synonyms. 'Attempt' is more formal than 'try'.
'Other than that' and 'apart from that' are interchangeable. 'Besides that' would not work as well as the other two.

Cheers!
