Big thing: becoming more respected in my work environment and circle of friends.

Small thing: the look on my friends' faces when they see me 5 inches taller.  Also their jealousy  What are you looking forward to when you become taller?

5 inches??
Your friends will laugh at you behind your back or feel sorry for you.
But it doesn't matter what they think. It shouldn't.....

---------------

I didn't want to be treated or seen as a child anymore.
I still haven't really felt any difference  What are you looking forward to when you become taller?

I have only heard of bad things people have said about me.

Sweden,

Bad things about you doing LL? Or other bad things?

Since you're 180 cm now, there's no reason for you to be treated as a child, depending solely on your height. Even 173 cm (your starting height) wasn't really short to begin with.

With bad things I mean others that laughed at me why I was injured and some has laughed at me bc I'm taller now.
I can only imagine what they are saying behind my back.
Nobody has the guts to confront me with it though.

If I would go for another 5cm then it would be too obvious and I would be totally ridiculed.

Just came from the gym now a second ago and lots of girls were staring at me I noticed. Seemed like in a positive way What are you looking forward to when you become taller?
I also ran 8 or 9 steps for real today so there is still hope to recover fully What are you looking forward to when you become taller?

Sorry, alright - back to topic.

My lengthening won't happen over night, and I'll even make it a gradual process using lifts, so no one is too surprised.  I also have a great alibi  (that being growth spurt + HGH) and am a very convincing individual.  I think my story will work better than yours did Sweden because it doesn't involve elephants breaking my legs.  What are you looking forward to when you become taller?

Just out of curiosity, Sweden, what was your full elephant story, in all its entirety (and glory)?

This sounds like it could beat Frankster's "I fell off the great wall and I'm now 9cm taller" story.

Small thing: Being able to go places with my much taller siblings without one of their acquaintances/friends asking me "What happened to you?" and not believing I'm not related to my siblings due to being so much shorter. (My brothers and sisters are all 5'10 and up)

Big thing: Weight lifted off my shoulders and I can get on with life without height constantly on my mind.

I look forward to being able to work. I look forward to being motivated in life. The worst thing about the current situation is "It won't be worth doing X, Y or Z because I'm 5'5." This isn't insecurity, as most people might think. I see it more of an objective reality that I've already come to terms with.
