Height obsession?!


Question: I'm 16 and 5'4" and ever since I was like 14 I've been obsessed with my height. I measure myself like 10 times a day making sure I didn't grow because I want to be short. I would do anything in the world to be 5'1", I would cut off my legs! I just want to be tiny! I have mental breakdowns and suicidal thoughts because I just hate my height so much. What the hell can I do to at least shrink an inch or two?!

5'4'' is tiny my dear! You're fine! I'm 6 feet tall and if I can be ok with that, you should be good to go!

Well,I'm 16 too & I just went to the doctors the other day..I thought I was about 5'3 or 5'4 but I'm 5'2.. just don't worry about it I think your at perfect height!

I'll trade you! I am 5'1 and let me tell you I would trade you heights any day of the week! It really is not that fun to be so short, jeans are always too long, things are always too high out of reach, you can't look most people in the face when you talk to them cause you are always looking UP, and when you hug people your face gets smashed into their chest( oh how embarrassing it is to hug another female!) and the list goes on! OMG! I would give anything for longer legs! Quit obsessing! there is nothing you can do anyway just go enjoy those long damn legs you lucky girl!

5'4 is considered short! You should be happy too be what ever height you are. I'm 5'2 and it really isn't that fun, half the time I can barely reach things I have to ask someone else. Just be happy with the way you are.
