I hate my height so much! At 6'1 half inch tall I feel like a total freak monster. Do I suffer a medical con?
I'm a 20 year old guy.
I'm depressed.
I'm hate my huge body!
I have no life.
I wish I were only average height which is 5'7.4 for a man.
At 5'7.4 I would be a much happier person. I would not think of myself as being a freak because I would be just average. I would not have to suffer the daily challenges of being so very tall.
I would not have any trouble making friends because my height would be average instead of way abnormal. I think that people look at me different because of how tall I am and that hurts me a lot. It also makes me quit angry at the same time. My parents are to blame for this. I believe strongly that I'm my parents had truly cared about me, (which they didn't), they would have taken me to a doctor to have my height stunted at an early age because they KNEW I was going to be above the norm in terms of height at a very young age. Why didn't they do something?! I guess I will never know because I've not communicated with my parents in over 3 years now. I've really had enough of their carelessness. If they don't care about me, then I don't really care about them.
It's so hard to accept the fact that you a different from everyone else around you. You feel out of place, like you were a freak experiment by God himself. Gosh! My parents and God are both SICKOS!
Everything from finding cloths that fit, finding a car that will fit a 6'1 1/2 inch monster is next to impossible, finding massive size 14 shoes is only possible if ordered online. Worring about the future and what health problems lie ahead such as joint and back problems due to my extreme height. It's particularly embarrassing to have to bend down so you can hear people talking to you because you way above their level. That REALLY bothers me.
When you are of average height you are able to find girlfriends that fit you! I just looked up the average height of a women in the united states and it said the average was just above 5'1. Well seeing that the average height for a man in the united states is 5'7.4 it makes since why it was made that way. it looks so natural for a 5'1 women and a 5'7 man to be together because those are normal heights. At 6'1 1/2 inches tall, I'm anything from being normal. These guys who are average are able to get girls around their own size, something that I've always dreamed of having but never will due to the fact that women really don't get much taller than 5'1 inches tall! I'm so screwed!
I know you might say that women love tall men.
WELL THEY DON"T LOVE GAINT MEN THAT'S FOR CERTAIN! I don't know why God decided to curse me with this! I did nothing to get this, I never asked to be this humongous, and I never wanted to have bum ass parents who never took care of me in the first place.
Way was I born so far above the average height?
I read somewhere that I might have suffered from a condition called Gigantism. I this it's where the brain tells this one gland to produce too much growth hormone, making those who are a victum several inches above the average height for an adult human being. It's just too bad this was not stopped by my parents.
How can I ever accept that I am different?
What could of caused this? Both my parents are normal in terms of their height. Mom is 5’3. Dad is 5’6. All of my family members have been about as tall as they are. What the hell happened to me?

Being a rower at 5’9, I am extremely jealous of you. Height has a huge advantage in rowing and I dream of having your height.
I understand that you feel left out when your height alienates you from others, but sometimes you standout in a crowd and you can use your stature as an advantage (like Abe Lincoln).
Girls are like shoes, you have to find the right ones that fit you. I know it seems daunting sometimes but that’s what life is about: figuring out how to live it given what we have. Don’t be discouraged, you will find your way.

Life happened to you.
I’ve seen 13 year olds act more mature than you.
Grow up, seriously. You’re not even tall enough to be considered abnormal.
January 29th, 2011 - 10:49
Dude, I’m 14, and 6′ 3"!
My parents are shorter than me.
I am proud, but it gets annoying when random people comment. There is nothing wrong, and you have company!

January 29th, 2011 - 10:49

6’1 is not that tall. If you told a doctor you have gigantisism they would probably laugh at you. I also think girls dont like you because you act the way you do. This is also coming from a 13 year old who is more mature than you (as another answerer said) and slightly shorter than you (5’10.5 and stiil growing).
January 29th, 2011 - 10:49
6’1 isn’t even that tall.
There are people in my family that are like 6’7, see how you feel then ?

Dude you’re not a freak giant, you’re tall yes, but this means no common person will likely push you around, to make the most out of it do some work outs, get those muscles going, some girls do like big guys, but you have to maintain your body weight as well. I’m 5, 11 my ex was like 4, 4 a big difference, but what ever easier for me to hug and pick her up and such don’t bother about what "normal" people are like or what’s a "normal" body type to have, that’s dumb, otherwise find yourself one of tall women there are some like 6 feet and above.

Wow! Another Woe is me Pity Party! Stop & think about it for just one second – you COULD perish in a fatal car accident at any time. Then, all the whining, crying, pity partying, woe is me, moaning & groaning, sniffing & snorting will have been totally in vain. You need to thank God for every inch He has blessed you with & get on with the rest of your life. Life is not always the way it’s supposed to be. It’s just the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.
