I mean overall image of your own body.
Basically i have crap image of my own body but i can't really tell what exactly is the problem(except height obviously). I know it's something more but i can't tell what.
Have you ever had anyone insist that you were taller than you were?
Yes, people usually thinks I'm something like 5'9"5 (177cm)
But it's strange, I take a picture of me near a 177 line and I look very near. I guess the gap is very nothing, my hairs are more than 5'10

At this point the only aspect of my body that bothers me is height. There were a few other things, but those are gone now. (i.e. I thought I was weak, but then I started working out so I no longer do. I'm far from being a champion bodybuilder, and I have no desire to be one, but I feel like I'm strong now.) When it comes to height, growing taller didn't eliminate the desire to be taller. Now, instead of wanting to be 6' or 6'1", I want to be 6'3 or 6'4". I'm not sure what is wrong with me since height clearly isn't the issue now.
You said you were heavily bullied in the past.. That could be the reason.. A psycologist wouldnt hurt.

That has to be it, but why height? I'm already taller than anyone who bullied me. (They're all under 6'.) I'm stronger than them, better looking than them, smarter than them. I can get women they can't even get in their dreams. Many of them are fat asses and complete failures.
I need the help of a psychologist to figure this out.

i think it all comes down to human instinct that we all want what we dont have and greedyness. i have a 6'1 friend that said he would want a couple more inches but wouldn't break his legs or anything for it. as a 5'2 guy i would be more than grateful to be 5'7. those that have achondroplasia/midgets would kill to be 5'2. if i was naturally 5'7 i probably would still undergo LL but being 5'2 humbles me to accept 5'7 way more.
and to contribute to the original topic of the thread the tallest guy in my highschool was 6'5 but i could've swore he was 6'8-6'9 perhaps its my short eye level though
InCollege, dude, 6'1 is actually really good. I mean at a legit 6'3 you literally stand nothing to gain over 6'1 socially. In fact you're probably losing out a bit- you'll actually be too tall for some women for example.
Also, you'll probably lose some athleticism and mobility from lengthening, so you actually stand to lose something, not just wasted time and money.
Please get a shrink man, don't do the surgery! You don't need it at all. You are literally a male model height. Work on other areas if you think something needs improving, it sure isn't your height.
To answer OP, yeah, it depends on my self-confidence though. I'm a depressive and at times I have crushingly low self-esteem, I don't shower, so on (I'm not a manic depressive, just a depressive).
If I'm feeling good, then I'm usually confident and extroverted, and people always have guessed me to be at 5'10, at first anyway. I'm 5'8.
When I've been down, I've generally been marked as 5'6.
I think presence is important.
They tell you that to make you feel better or becuase they are fools. At 185 cm, you should feel fortunate, dont care if you are 6 1" or 6 2", once you are above average it doesnt care anymore.
I'm probably ~5'4.5 but people always place me as being 5'6-5'7. I think it's cause most people add 2-3 inches. I also know a dude who's 5'0-5'1 and everyone guesses him to be 5'3-5'4.
