Im about to kill myself... Im a pubertyless adult from chemicals and I cant take!


Question: Im about to kill myself!.!.!. Im a pubertyless adult from chemicals and I cant take this!?
Ok im just now learning that my growth was COMPLETELY stunted during my puberty!.!.!. I was put on 20 mg Prozac and 30 mg Adderall from 8th grade all the way until the end of my senior year (not the adderall during summers) and I didnt grow a single inch!. Studies/articles all over google say they both stunt growth!. I am still in my 5 foot 8, slender up and down, tiny hands, boy body and I cant live like this!. I didnt have a single growth spurt during high school!. My dads 6 foot 1 and my brothers 6 foot 4 and my sister is 5 foot 7!. All i can think about is going to a gun show, buying a gun, and ending it!.!.!. I have no masculinity!. Im not a man and never will be now!.

Someone please tell me its normal to not grow after 14 and not have facial hair until im 17-18!.!.!. and to be this short compared to my tall family!. Someone please tell me my growth wasn't stunted or that you know someone who took these drugs and still grew!.

what do you guys think!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You have cause to be suspicious, but you can't be certain about this!.

It *is* normal for some people to grow less than others!. Most boys continue to grow in height until about 17, give or take!. Stopping at 14 is unusual but not out of the question!. You haven't told us how old you are now - it may be possibel that you could get a late growth spurt!.

No facial hair until 17-18, that is also within a normal range!. It's later than average, which again makes me wonder how old you are now and if you could have a later than average growth spurt!.

None of this convinces me that your growth was completely stunted by the drugs!. If you have matured sex organs, underarm hair, and facial hair, you have sexual maturity!. You can't assume since you are the shortest person in your family that something is wrong with you!.

If you're really concerned about this, you should be asking your doctor!. If they feel that you are underdeveloped (which I doubt), they may be able to offer you some therapy to correct that!.

Above all else though, chill out, you sound within normal ranges to me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go to a doctor, and ask for testosterone (male hormone) injections!. Work out at a gym, and build your body up!. 5' 8" is not short, by any means, and you may well have been that height anyway; it is well within the bounds of normal genetic variation!.

Eat toasted pumpkin seeds, (mimics the male hormone) and a fairly high protein diet!. Wear lifts (built up shoes) if you feel you need them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Im 5'5 and half (half to make me feel better!) and i havea boy body with big hands and feet!. And always ask for my ID everytime i buy a drink!. And yeah i didnt grow any facial until i was 17 myself!.!.!.!. and it was very slowwwly!.!.

Try to look for some posibilities, surf the net to get some help from it, its either be medicine or exercise or diet!. But just make sure if you cant find any, just be sure to accept who you are, as the person on top said "5'8 isnt that bad!.!."

Take care yourself

My boyfriend is 17 and still has very little facial hair!. If you're under 25 you may still get taller, but you're only 2 inches below average height now!. Don't think that it's the end of the world, a lot of women actually feel less threatened by guys with less masculine looks!. Also, count your blessings!.!.!.I have a genetic defect such that I will not go through normal puberty until I can afford hormone treatments, and will probably never get taller than my current height of 5'2"!. Additionally I have gynecomastia (man boobs) and wide hips!. Most people don't believe me that I'm a guy, and I get harassed in bathrooms!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

5'8 is a good height!. I'm 18 years old and I'm 5'2, but I'm not suicidal!. I've always been short so I've gotten use to it, the only time I have problems is when I'm buying pants!.
You haven't said how old you are but I assume you're around my age or a bit older!. It's very possible that you're just a late bloomer or you're somebody who doesn't get huge growth spurts but grows gradually and slowly instead!. Just give it some time and be patient!. It would be crap to kill yourself now when if you just waited a couple of years you might have had a growth spurt and matured a lot!. And even if you turn out to be one of those people who will always look a bit younger than they really are (like me), well you'll appreciate it when you're 50!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

whats wrong with 5'8!?!?!? its about the average height right!?

You need to stop comparing yuorself to other people for a start as everyone is different anyway!! and some guys dont get facial hair untill their mid twentys!!! again everyone is different,!.

To say you are going to shoot yourself is rediculous and I think pointless in saying that in this question!! why ruin and depress everyone elses day buy saying something so idiotic!!

Killing yourself is a waste of a precious life you have been given!!

Some people are extrmely diformed or in constant pain throughout their lives (physical pain) but they still carry on and appreciate life!!!

So stop wasting everyones time with your suicide threats!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
