23 years old, barely 5'5. 5'4.5 wingspan. Want this surgery but sometimes get really hesitant like do I really need it or am I really that short? The answer always comes back to yes I am but it goes round and round in a loop in my head. I don't want this loop in my head anymore and I feel that as well as the three inches it will give me is good enough to go through with it. I feel like I just need to go ahead and do it. When I was about 15-16 I stopped growing and it destroyed my life. Everyone started treating me differently. I see posts on here with some people saying it is the best decision they have ever made. Probably will wait until 25-26 to get it though. Just want to hear some thoughts on it.
Ive thought on and off about this surgery for seven years. I just don't feel comfortable being social at this height. Its a weird thing. I don't like traveling and going to social event at this height. When I was taller compared to everyone else it seemed like life was different. 3 inches i think would change my life so much for the better. I wish i could have it for a day to just see how i liked it. My athletic school days are behind me. I am an adult and only really care about building muscle on my body and staying fit now. I just think it would change my life so much for the better.
did anyone on here have it and was like yes this was absolutely the thing missing in my life? Even about 80% of that mindset would be good enough for me to go through with it
Im kind of worried about the social stigma of it. Like i don't think i would ever tell anyone I had it except my wife one day and my parents and brother. No one needs to know but i don't like the feeling that if anyone ever found it, they would think I'm really weird.
Im not in the best shape right now, I wouldn't say fat but also not in shape. I wonder if I put on a ton of muscle and get really shredded if peoples perception of me will change and I won't need to get surgery.
did anyone on here go through with the surgery?
