@ivon My GI issue is Gastropanesis .. but Mayo MN GI doctors prescribed Mirtazapine for me ... to make me want to eat. It seems to work.. but I still feel best when my stomach is empty.. in the morning.. by night I have real eating issues.. but I know I must eat or die.. so the needed action is an easy ... eat... as much as will stay down.. and will not be painful.. so judgement is still necessary.. The mild anti-depressant helps me deal with more than food issues in this time of the Pandemic.. Ken

Yes, I took the same med to make me eat. I was told they were very addicting so I went off once I started eating. My normal time to eat something is between 11 am until 2 pm. I found that boost energy drinks helped me. It was great to be down 40 lbs in a few weeks ,but it was not me. I felt good! You will get this, there is no true answere, everyone is different. My best wishes for you to feel as good as you can.
