First, in clinical studies, Lexapro is weight gain neutral, meaning that just as many people gain weight as lose weight. With that said, it is impossible to say whether the drug itself actually causes people to gain weight, and if it does it is unknown as to why which further complicates the matter.
Second, you indicated that the the person had depression. Adderall is not recommended for people with depression, however, new studies have shown Adderall to actually be effective. Now the second part of the question that states that you have obsessive thinking. If this is the case, then I would definitely be very wary of taking Adderall, since Adderall is likely to increase this behavior.
Third, both Adderall and Lexapro act on the same neurotransmitters. With that said, they are still very different drugs, but do run into the potential of counteraction each other. For instance, Adderall works primarily on dopamine, but has also been shown to increase serotonin as well. Lexapro works mainly on Serotonin. Now most SSRI's also will to a lesser extent increase dopamine and norepinephrine. If you are to mix Adderall with an antidepressant, Lexapro would be the best one to do so with, since studies show that Lexapro is cleaner and acts on serotonin and does not seem to increase the other neurotransmitters.
Fourth, it is unlikely you will achieve the results you want. The truth is, Adderall works to decrease the weight mainly by suppressing your appetite. It also increases your metabolism, but this increase is negligible and is not likely to make any significant difference in weight. Also, you will notice a decrease in appetite at first and the Adderrall will work initially; however, over long periods of time, Adderral is not very effective in managing weight as your body becomes used to the drug.
The best way to decrease your weight is through exercise. You should be doing exercises that elevate your heart rate to over 130 bpm, at least 4 times a week for 30 minutes - 60 minutes. While any exercise will burn calories and help, exercising of this intensity is the only real way to release endorphins which naturally increases both your serotonin and dopamine levels which will help reduce your need for the antidepressant and make your existing dosage more effective. Also, this level of exercise will elevate your glucose levels, thus naturally suppressing your appetite. And finally, even if the Lexapro has decreased your metabolism, this should offset any decrease and set you on the path to weight loss.
Of course, not everyone can manage such a routine; however, it is the one likely to give you consistent results. In any event, you should speak with your doctor to weigh the pros and cons, as Adderall is a stimulant and a Schedule II controlled substance. Adderall has done many wonderful things for many people, especially in the area of ADHD; however, it also has the potential to do many negative things as well and has a higher potential of addiction than most other drugs.
How can you tell when someone is on Adderall that is not perscribed?
I personally have taken Adderall and do not have a prescription for it, it is like speed to me I move faster talk more stay awake longer, want to learn can not stop writing, when im doing a certain task I do it VERY thoroughly and I want to solve the worlds problems! because of the speedy effect it has on me I tend to want to start multiple task a one time. I am this way for the first few days if I take it everyday for lets say 5 days the last 2 days this behavior is not so dramatic and more suttle. If you knew im typical behavior you would easily be able to tell I was "on something" for say because naturally I am shy and quiet.
My husband however is diagnosed ADHD and takes Adderall he too experienced similar side effects in the beginning. However naturally without medication he moves fast, talks a lot and starts multiple task but in an erotic , scatter brained kind of way. On adderall he is able to focus more often then with out the drug.
So to answer your question in general just watch someones behavior if It is dramatically different they are probable on something adderall or not. Some caffeine pills or diet pills can give a person some of the same side effects. And truthfully if they have taken it for awhile or taken a small dosage you wont be able to tell by behavior only. If its very important for you to know it can be tested in most 5 panel drug test that you can buy at any drug store test for amphetamine (AMP)

Do Risperdal and Adderall work together for a person diagnosed with schizophrenia?
Adderall has the potential to increase symptoms of delusions and psychosis, usually when abused. Risperdal acts as a direct antagonist of dopamine receptors which is the site of action for Adderal. It can be prescribed with an anti-psychotic to minimize any danger of side-effects. You and your doctor will decide if the risks outweigh the benefits. It is actually a very commonly prescribed combination of drugs(though I'm not sure for what illness), and is helpful if the person is suffering from negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Although there are some correlations between dopamine receptors and schizophrenia, it is not an absolute and each person may respond differently.
Is it safe to mix phentermine 12.5mg and diazapan 5mg?
It's always wise to check with your doctor about this. That said...
The dosages you describe are proper clinical dosages, and there is no listed drug interaction between diazepam and phentermine. So, you should be safe with this.
Why does the drug speed have the reverse effect on ADHD patients?
It is because in ADD/ADHD patients there is a part of their brain that is running slower than the rest of the brain.. the stimulants activate 'that' part of the brain so it can run at the same speed as the rest of the brain.

Taking generic adderall 20mg three times a day will it show up positive for?
You will most definitely pop on a drug test for amphetamines. On the side of an Adderall bottle under the drug-name it will say "amphetamine salts" which is, if you have a prescription, a legal form of speed. Good luck!
How long should you wait to get pregnaut after taking adderall?
You will be fine any time after discontinuing the daily dose of Adderall. If you take 60mg daily or less, the entire contents of the medication will be entirely out of your body in about one week (this also depends on your weight, but it would only vary maybe a day or two). In addition to that, you also should not continue the use of Adderall while breast feeding.

Im prescribed adderall xr vicodin and Valium Is this safe?
That doesn't seem very safe. Adderall reacts badly with Diazapam (Valium) but I'm not sure about the Vicodin though, I'm sure you will be fine with that. You might want to talk to your doctor about the Valium and Adderall mixture though, I take adderall too and the part about drug interactions says not to mix with the Diazapam.
How long does Adderall take effect?
It takes about 3-4 hours for the medication to reach it's peak. Take it with something basic (milk instead of coke or coffee) to improve absorption.
It seems about 30 to 45 minutes. Usually, I find that I know when meds kick in.
*edit*
Milk commonly has a pH that is within the range of about 6.5-6.7 making it slightly acidic, not basic. Just sayin.
A Bachelor's Degree refers to any degree which is a BSc (Bachelor of Science) or BA (Bachelor of Arts) and so on. They are like most common degree level qualifications and often lead into higher qualifications such as MSc (Master of Science) or MA (Master of Arts). The Sc and A parts only refer to the content of the degree. Sc is more founded science and empirical evidence which suggests that its more difficult. A is less founded in science and relies more on theoretical and philosophical frameworks which do not require empirical evidence.
It is usually considered that an Sc is better because of its bases in scientific evidence. This suggests that a person with an Sc would stand a greater chance of getting the job when compared to a person with an A. This isn't always the case though as many qualifications don't offer an Sc and many jobs don't really require a scientific bases (although it may be good to have it).

What drugs should you avoid while taking about 80mg of Adderall daily?
Basically avoid any other type of stimulant drug, your body is already flooding the brain with dopamine from the adderall you don't need to add to the mix even more. Muscle relaxers are ok and sometimes even prescribed to relieve muscle tension the adderall creates. Weed is also a good drug you can use on adderall if you need to calm it down a bit. SO basically, NO Molly(ecstacy included) or Coke while on a high dose like 80mgs. Unless you don't mind doubling your chances of heart palpitations and chance of stroke. SO no uppers, only downers.
