Hello all, im crying as i type this and recently contemplated committing suicide because the body dysphoria is just getting severe and severe. im 5'2 and a half, 5'3 on a good day and recently been taking in as much information about LL as I can but unfortunately even if i go through LL id still be short (5'5) i just feel Id rather be dead than to be a walking embarrassment of myself. im not a ugly guy neither, not to be conceited but i think i have a handsome face. it just looks odd in my short small frame. my dream height is 6'0 but that is impossible. first of all, id look like a t-rex and the tallest i could be without risking ability to walk is 5'7 and even that is a bit overboard but i wouldnt let no other surgeon other than dr.paley make me that tall but thats a pipe dream because his way too expensive. i dont know what to do. if im not going to be atleast 5'10 i cant live with myself. i feel emasculated everyday. literally the size of a average 3rd grader
Id be pretty content at 5'8.. any good surgeons that wouldnt burn a hole in my pocket? ive been looking into dr.sarin alot since his only 20k and complications are free but his rep isnt too promising
No doubt 5'7 isnt a bad height at all brother its just imagine if brad pitt or ryan gosling were 5'7. society would look at them differently and they wouldnt be as manly or whatever. I've seen very handsome guys rock that height. the guy that won most attractive when i was in high school was around 5'5. i say that because i remember being almost to his shoulder. i just feel its not a good enough height and the way women see it anything under 6'0 is manlet size.

saving up for paley were my initial plans but i made calculations and wouldnt be reaching his budget anytime soon. my highest education level is a diploma so i have a minimum wage job at wendys and i make about 260 a week. to get a job that would even be worthy to consider saving up i would have to have a job that gives 60k a year atleast so i would have to go to college lets just say 3 years minimum.thats 3 years of being consistently emasculinized since the average college guy is 5'7 and up. you guys get my point. im only 19 and live with my mother who makes 75k a year (rn nurse) shes agreed to lending me 10k if i ever decide to go with it but im having trouble finding a surgeon that is inexpensive yet not a butcher. i would rather go with dr paley who has been taught by the man himself ilizarov but its just seems so far away. apologies if i come off as pessimistic im normally not like this. i dont have a problem with not being able to run as i was never a very athletic guy to begin with, and i dont mind having to walk with crutches for awhile either. in total i would have to reserve 200k for dr paley plus arm lengthening if i recall correctly its 65k internally lets just say 265k just to put height dysphoria to an end. if it was for me, id be all for it but i dont see myself making that much money.

this line made me bust out laughing lmao
Quote from: CaptainAmerica on December 27, 2016, 09:25:14 PMYou can do 15cm to get up to 5'8 but you won't be able to run anymore and you may spend 50+ in a walker. Do arm lengthening and you will look 100% fine (just wear baggy tees). Apo did ~15+ ish (plus arm lengthening) and here's what he looks like:
He went from 5'5 to 6' I believe?
You can probably correct posture (or hit up A-Grow-Bics in Britain) + take glucosamine to get an inch out of torso.
Now wear some sneakers and you're 5'10.
Obviously this isn't optimal but it's a lot better than being dead.
by the looks of it, his humerus is longer so he probably lengthened that and was probably a 5'7 fella, he looks great.

im completely grateful for her but id feel like a leech if she did lend me 10k for the procedure. im sorry to hear that brother, i read up on ur posts all the time.
Quote from: CaptainAmerica on December 27, 2016, 10:34:32 PMYou're still young, I'm about to turn 19 soon too. Over the past few years I've tried a few things to make money knowing that I'll pretty much need LL to live a normal life.
Look into BlackHatWorld, apps, YouTube, web, etc... I make really good money with passive income from AdMob. DoingItForMe is another member here who did the same.
In a way, I'm kind of glad I'm a bit short. Because if I wasn't I don't think I would've been forced to get rich lol.
y'know something i been looking into recently is live streaming websites (twitch,live.me) regular people get paid to video tape their life live. this one guy got 75k a year i believe. i tried monetizing adsense on my blogspot but unfortunately i didnt get much views
