Appetite loss for months?

During a stressful period (I thought I had cancer) I completely lost my appetite. I've had tests done but 3 months later I still feel sick all the time and have no appetite, food seems disgusting to me like when you have a sickness bug and in the 3 months I've lost 3 stone. Doctors seem confident there is no cancer and it's anxiety related.

Every day I feel sick and struggle to eat.

Has anyone else anywhere had this?

Malnutrition can cause loss of appetite, aversion to food and nausea. If you’ve been eating so little due to stress for so long, you could be malnourished.
Have you tried some supplement shakes such as Complan or Ensure? They have nutrients in them which might help you to restore your appetite if you can manage a couple of those a day.
