Gallon of milk a day.

Count your calories. You aren't eating enough.

If you genuinely were eating over-maintenance and still aren't gaining weight, you don't need to see a doctor, you need to see a group of world-leading scientists, because you have some unique genetic mutation that could solve all sorts of things like wasting diseases and world hunger.

But that isn't going to happen, because you aren't eating enough.

If you're struggling to eat enough through stuff like anxiety or panic attacks, get your testosterone levels checked.

I was your size and thought I ate a lot, too. You have to learn how to eat. Eat more frequently, have things available all the time

I'm the same height as you and when I began my journey I was 135 and reached around 170/175.

Here's my advice (apart from the obvious going to the gym and lifting heavy weights)

Drinks shakes, two a day if you can. Here's my recipe:

Whole milk
Peanut Butter
Banana
Protein Powder
1-2 teaspoons of olive oil
Greek Yogurt or something similar.

If you calculate the calories correctly you can get 800-1000 calories in a shake, two of those a day plus normal meals, or even one a day plus normal meals should put some meat on those bones and yes you will put on some fat but you can lose it later.

As everyone else says, count your calories even if it's a rough guess and start adding more and more to it with each passing week.

I’ve got the same problem OP. Not as bad, 5’7”/130. I was 115, and have been steadily gaining after making sure that everything I drink has caloric value - whether it’s a protein shake, milk, coffee, breakfast shake mix, protein shakes, beer, etc doesn’t matter. My appetite alone does not allow for the apparent 3000 calories a day I apparently need in order to gain a pound or so a month so I’ve resorted to drinking it

go to doctor, get blood work for vitamins, minerals, hormones. fix with diet
eat more food. 1,000 calorie smoothies are easy to make and easy to get down
lift weights
take creatine

Eat healthy, get sleep and wake up early.

You probably have gut issues and food allergies. I did and once I worked past them I gained a ton of weight.

I’m not trying to make fun of you, but this is so obvious. The answer is lead a healthy and an active lifestyle. Go to the gym, sign up for a combat sport (if you want), eat high calorie foods.

99.9% you just have an extremely high metabolism. You fix the being a twig issue by working out and eating high quality high calorie meals. Instead of eating 3 times a day, try to eat 4, or 3 instead of 2. Try to stretch your stomach by eating a lot so more food fits inside. An average adult’s stomach is as big as a clenched fist. Since you’re so scrawny it’s probably even smaller.
