How can I eat again? I was prescribed Periactin (Cyproheptadine) to stimulate my appetite and it had been working great for me but I ran out and I don't have a doctor anymore thanks to insurance issues which means I can't get prescriptions anymore. I don't know if there's anything over the counter that would have the same effect. What can I do?

One option mentioned in the context is using medical marijuana to help stimulate appetite. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional before trying any new treatments or supplements. Additionally, consider eating smaller meals throughout the day and incorporating nutrient-dense snacks like protein bars or shakes.
