if u proceed to surgery it is more than insecurity - though we don't want to get too semantic over it - if you perceive it affects your life it can be a serious life impacting issue
It is not just mere perception that it impacts your life though. It does impact. Tall people are usually treated better. The question is whether you would shrug it off or get LL to fix it.
no - i have already said we don't want to get too semantic over kabels - if u perceive/feel it affects your life then what affects your life is not your height but your mental self image etc - thus possibly a mental condition which would not be solved by breaking your legs

Then why did u break ur legs when u were already 175cm?
I'm not entirely sure tbh. Most guys who end up being happy with their results long term were already otherwise very successful, fulfilled people. It's just this 1 nagging thing.
From a strictly medical sense, yes it is probably a mental health disorder/some degree of BDD.
But where do you draw the line? If a guy is super successful/attractive/social and has plenty of money to do CLL and he wants to do so, doesn't it almost become the "correct" thing to do? AKA it is clear that being taller is better. It doesn't matter how you cut it.
re azaghul - i fully acknowledge i have a mental condition, i am, unfortunately, aware of it, it has stopped me living a full life in many, many ways - the height ie 175 does not matter - i think when u actually do this and come out the other side it is even more apparant - i broke my legs on the 'hope' it would solve issues but it did not really work out like that - your innate character dies not change etc.
being raller is not at all nesessarliy better - if one is happy and healthy within onself etc -
it is a horrible condition at its worst
Some people expect the surgery to change their personality
All it does is "possibly" remove the neurosis and thoughts in your head of insecurity.
Nothing else changes. Even baseline happiness is not increased, with the exception of slight gain from not having to think about height (possibly)
Some people think they will be Chad for some reason. Turn from introvert to extrovert. Be more likeable. Just lol.
It is a sad thingy in my opinion if go through all this and come out still as insecure. And that is why it is important to keep expectations in check before hand. Have no expectations but simply the possibility of removing neurosis.
And if it don't remove neurosis, that is the worst outcome ever
yes indeed - it can only lessen the neurosis - a neurosis by definition needs some form of psycological/psychiatric treatment - one can often turn to substance misuse too in order to self-medicate a condition often brought on by some form of trauma etc leading to other issues too, job losses, thwarted ambition, fear of intimacy - i wore HUGE lifts even at 175 - crazy - yet i was v well liked by others etc - v sad!!
it is also barely researched in the menral health field
