As I talked about in my last post, I recently found out that I’m basically done growing at only 5’5 and 13 years old. It’s only been a day, but ever since, I’ve been analyzing everyone around me to see how tall I am in comparison to make myself feel better, even though I know in about 4 years they’re all going to be taller than me. I just want to know how to accept that I’m going to be short forever.

You're 13 jfl. Stop worrying you'll prob grow another couple inches. But you can always height fraud 3-4 inches.

I have an advanced bone age so my growth is that of a 16 year old and the doctor looked at and showed me an x ray in which my growth plates were clearly closed

Save for LL

It’s good that you realized it at 13
 
13yo and your plates already closed? Damn
Slay while you can boyo, once you get to 18yo at 165cm, it'll be over unfortunately.

i would say move to like south america, you would do fine? Whats your ethnicity OP?
 
Are you atleast good-looking facially? And I'd get a second opinion on your growth plates tbh bro If there's any room left you must blast every compound under the sun for any amount of height
 
I also stopped growing around 13 at 5'8-5'9. I am significantly shorter than my father and only 3-4 inches taller than my mother

despite what people tell you on here its very possible and easy to find love and happiness as a short male, but nobody on here is ready for that conversation

I fraud 3 inches everywhere i go. I dont recommend this for you because it will only allow insecurity to consume you, which it already clearly is, but if you need some type of relief thats what id suggest. I can link my heightfraud guide to you if you want,

How could you be done growing at 13 years old? I grew an inch and a half between 19 and 20.

No. Also its a bit retarded to think every male is taller than their dad because that means we would constantly be getting taller and would all be 10 foot giants by now

My pediatrician said height is basically like rolling thousands of dices simultaneously. If you parents are taller, youll have more "tall" dices, but its still very possible to roll shorter dices. I was quite unlucky though, like bottom 2 percent i think he said. Most kids with my parents height end up around 6 foot

And he said although fast food and goyslop can be unhealthy for many reasons, it will never make you short. You have to be anorexic level malnourished like those ED girls to stunt your growth

if you still can’t accept it after that you need to save for LL

If your growth plates really are closed, I won’t lie that’s a brutal thing to find out at 13. Anyone would spiral over that. So yeah, what you’re feeling makes sense.
But being short isn’t a life ender, it just feels like one right now because you’re still surrounded by school, comparison, and kids who haven’t even grown into themselves yet. The world after your teens doesn’t run on height the way your brain thinks it does.
You don’t need to ‘accept it forever’ today. You just need to not let this one trait decide your entire identity. Strength, confidence, skills, humor, presence those matter way more long-term than inches. And those are things you can actually build.”

The easiest way I can describe it is being extremely overweight borderline obese basically my whole life and then starving my self over summer when I was 11 to lose weight

Maybe I could hit like 5’7 if I’m lucky but it was very clear from the x ray that the plates were closed

you can try pinning igf1 directly into the closed plates to reopen them its theoretical but if it has any chance of working its worth a shot

Bro did you just suggest a 13-year old purchase Balenci's to heightmaxx
 
start saving for LL and talk to your doctor about getting hgh/other possible compounds for height gain
