does Guichet have any restriction on taking patients who have anxiety/depression?
He actually works with two professional psychiatrists, one who you must have consultation with before LL, but also after your LL you will have at least two meetings with a psychiatrist, and I am sure you can have more. I suggest you contact him.
From my experience I can tell you that LL will take you to the extreme. You will lose your autonomy, you will be in pain, and you will be in a situation that you have probably never been before. This is an extreme change which could target depression. I love the fact that you are honest about it and checking carefully that this can be suitable for you with your mental state. Keep that up! consult with specialists carefully before. and speak to other patients as well.
How are you getting on these days? You must be past 3.5CM now no?
We had the exact same clicking issues and Im now in the process of winding down lengthening after about 32mm.
Quote from: RealLostSoul on February 12, 2023, 02:06:48 AMI can only speak anecdotally but I used lifts every single day, in every boot I wore for a good 7 years and the only “damage” it did to me is that my calves were a bit tight when I started lengthening and had to stretch them additionally for the first 4 weeks then I could drop it (i did femur LL). I never had any issues ever, not even in sports. I still heavily stand behind the sentiment that if someone wants to be taller and feels confident with lifts they should wear them for the rest of their lives instead of ever touching LL. (No one ever noticed my lifts too btw). It’s too extreme of a surgery and you sacrifice a lot when you do it. if I was confident enough to not think about height anymore with lifts I would have never ever done this.
I get what you're saying (LL is hard and think seriously about it) but as an alternative lifts are really not a substitute for being taller. Nothing is.
You invite friends over or go to their home and you take your shoes off. You have a significant other and she sees you with shoes off. You go to the beach or on a boat and shoes are off. Like what are you going to do, always wear shoes forever even in your bed lol. And people pick up on it faster than you realize.
I never wore lifts for this reason, it just doesnt make any sense and they're extremely uncomfortable. And when people find out you're wearing them you look like even more of a clown than just being short. I know this will piss off a lot of people but thats my honest opinion.
If you're short you basically have 2 options:
1) Get jacked and own it. Basically become a battle gnome.
2) get LL
UPDATE?

I would like to update this fake diary with your hijab mother at home. Troll turco.
because the forum went down WishMeLuck might have stopped visiting entirely
I really wanted to hear an update from him
Hi,
So I wanted to update about my current situation. I remember I always hated when people would finish their diaries and disappear. Well, they probably don't want to think about LL any more again! and go on with their lives (because this is not over!).
So, the crazy thing that was the lengthening itself was behind me. In addition, now it is 2.5 months since I stopped clicking. The first month after I stopped I was basically a disabled person walking with crutches in the street (barely). At night pain and waking up several times at night. the first month is far from being normal. 2nd month I started to walk more normally. Dr Guichet was mad at me that I am using crutches so I ditched them and initially it was very difficult. I would calculate every step, I was very slow, and also very afraid from falling in the street (going up or down one stair is very scary without your crutches!).
I used to bike every day and suffer from a lot of pain. After that, I started to do eliptical every day.
Right now, I am walking normally and starting to also do some weight machines at the gym. However, running is still impossible ( I can't lift my legs and I can't do the "bouncing" motion of running.
Still after meeting several patients online, they think my healing is crazy well. But for me - I want to get back to fully normal.
This is one of the most difficult things I ever did, and it is still not over (I used to run every week 10-14km x2, now I cant even run 50m). Also, you need surgery to remove the nail after 1 year and I am a bit traumatized from the whole thing.
This will test how strong you are, especially if you have a normal life before LL (you have more to lose).
For very short people - you might benefit from it because it is relatively safe.
For taller people - this will test how crazy you are...
Thanks for the update. Did you reach your goal of 5cm?
If you have recent imaging data please put it at this thread. Redact any information that could be used to dox you.
i wonder how much the guy lengthen and did he stop early because of pain. i need at least 5 cm.
