You're extremely, dangerously underweight. Even if you gained 20 pounds you'd be underweight. To be healthy you need to gain 30 pounds or so.
Have your doctor or therapist recommended hospitalization or other solutions? Because you're lucky you're not dead and obviously need a lot more help than you're currently getting. You'll probably have health problems for the rest of your life, and you need to work hard to minimize the long term damage to your body.
