I'm currently living in Sweden, and the average height here is approx 180 cm (5'11). I'm currently standing at 172 cm, 173 (5'Anything else I can do before I consider limb legthening? with a straight back/posture. I'm 17, and pretty much 70% of people are taller than me including women which at this Point i'm really getting depressed over my height. With shoes i'm 175 (barrely 5'9). I mean, it boost my confidence abit, but still no. I've Heard about insoles, and that they're a pain etc so why go thru the pain wearing insoles everyday when you can just do limb legthening, which also gives you pain..

I'm orgrinially from middle Eastern (arab guy). So, what should I even do, really hating my Life rn..

More immigrants are moving into Sweden and most of them are below 170 (5'7).

I mean, I look good, women (even taller than me) have said that. I've even slept with one that's 180. But back then, I didn't really care much about my height as much as I do now. I'm seriously getting more depressed every day.

Exactly. All my friends live here and it's hard to find somewhere else to go to. Although, I have good grades in school and could probably do something good out of it in the future. So if i'm going to leave somewhere, it's either for limb legthening or vacation

Yes, i'm muslim. But not that religious.

However, It's very hard for me to accept my height. Believe me, i'm suffering from the same issue every day and believing in ''Allah'', or praying or anything like that won't change the suffering. If it takes to break my leg to make me happy, then so be it. Life is disgusting after all

It is indeed hell. I feel even worse for those who are shorter than me an live in Sweden. These Swedish people are so tall, like literally all of them over 6 feet, and women of 5'9...

should I go for 2inches insoles afterall? Shoes gives an inch, plus 2 inches insoles making an additional 3 inches. This will get me to 179,5 (Almost 5'11). I've worn this, but only at home for trying etc, i'm afraid if I hook up with a girl and something happens where for example im forced to  take my shoes off, whether its outside or at home..

Should I go for insoles?

Quote from: Body Builder on May 18, 2017, 01:34:07 PMIt is impossible to put a 2 inches insole in a normal shoe. Your foot simply won't have enough space and it will be almost outside of the shoe.
Anything more than 3cm insoles is almost impossible for the majority of shoes so stay up to that to not look ridiculous and not injure your feet.

Also, even if your growth plates you can't do much. Eat and sleep good, do a little work out and that's all.
Your father and your brother are about the same height as you after all so don't expect any dramatic difference.


I wear these shoes; https://gyazo.com/4868656ae194c22b9ee3357d7c6b43df

So 2 inches can work tbh
