My response bothered me a little after I had posted it.

I hope you didn't feel I invalidated your feelings and concerns because that was not my intention.
If it were empathy you needed then my post would not have been particularly helpful.

Another thought was, that if you are desperate to gain weight, then eat what you enjoy.

I hope you are doing better today.

You have already received some very good advice...see your family doctor and also ask to see a nutritionist.

You sound desperate.

If your situation is as bad as it sounds, don't you think you should get some medical support?  That probably sounds very horrible and harsh but I know how hideous it can feel to feel like you're killing yourself along with the consequences of not eating (or not maintaining a healthy weight).

Usually the thought of the consequences of my actions stimulates me to eat -eventually.

A doctor is better able to advise and assess the situation.
If your body weight is extremely low then you may need re-feeding.  
If you are exercising you could limit that and that would help with weight gain (if you are eating sufficient calories).

Anything high in energy will work.  It's not a long-term solution though.  Addressing the underlying medical and psychological issues is.
