The mental illness in the forum

Edit Post

A topic dicussed heavily recently has been if mental disorders are the real causes that affect many users life. Be it from low self esteem or height neurosis we have all faced this to a degree. When in your opinion does it go to far to the point that they need to forget about the surgery and focus on getting help. And what are some possible reasons that you belive shows that someone clearly has a mental issue.

Waw this is so hard to pinpoint...

Let me say

The whole cosmetic Industry is on the rise. It have Been for years and it Will keep on rising.

In contries like South Korea its seen as normal to do every cosmetic operation to get better jobs and partners and just be free to do what you want.

Some People would say its crazy meanwhile People pump Them self with steoroids.
And get bigger in other ways.

Some tribe people who lives in africa put rings around there necks to get longer necks and thoes People Are seen as "Nature People"
So what Can we say ?

I Think its fantastic  that the humens Can do LL. It helps Many People  And it gives me drive to know it.
I would say im pretty "normal" and im pretty Chill.

Yes it is true that cultural diffrences play a part in cosmetic surgery. It is quite prevalent in korea to get as much plastic surgery as you want contrary to western nations which would see doing more than a couple as not normal.

Having plastic surgeries is one thing.
Really needing plastic surgeries to fix an aesthetic problem is another thing and that makes the difference between having a mental illness or having a real problem that you want to improve.

If someone has 30% fat he is a good candidate for a liposuction. If someone has 12% fat and wants a liposuction, he is ill.
The same happens between a 5.5 and a 6ft men who want LL. The first one can really improve his life and has real reasons to risk for LL while the second is just mentally ill as he risks to improve something that is not even a problem.
Things are that obvious for me.

What about the ones that say that they come from a very tall family but are in that 6 foot range. Would you place them in that  category as well or do they have justification?

Again it relative.

Otherwise every person in india should do LL

Of course they don't.
What matters is society and the average in every aspect has to do with population, not with family members.

After all, if someone is 6 ft and has 2 brothers who are 6.5-6.6 why should he feel inferior to them?
They are the ankwardly tall ones, he has a perfect height.

So no, family, friends, an ex who cheated you with a 7ft guy and all these are bs.
The only reason for someone to do a cosmetic surgery is when he has a real-objective problem.
And someone who has more than average height in his country has no problem at all so he doesn't needs LL no matter what.

I can see why an average height guy like Luke Hemsworth might consider the procedure. He has always been overlooked (quite literally and figuratively) for movie roles, as studio execs would rather have Liam or Chris. I'm pretty confident if his last name weren't Hemsworth, the comparison wouldn't be made and he'd be evaluated on his own merits. Just playing devil's advocate here and making the argument that family ties can and do affect perception in broader society.

Yet he didn't do it nor his extreme rich brothers gave him money to do it and I doubt they even mentioned it. He is a pretty happy guy posing even without lifts near his two brothers (out of which btw Liam is a pretty bad actor to be honest).

 He is happy to be average and isn't suffering from some ego problem like some here are

Sure, but that's because he's got a great life. Most people on here unfortunately do not, so they pick the easiest culprit to blame... stature.
And let's be real, Liam is a horrible actor but it doesn't really matter does it? Aesthetic matters on the west coast. And Luke was actually quite good in Westworld. We'd be lying to ourselves if we don't admit the genetic disparity with his brothers hasn't held him back.
