Answer 1

you"ll grow until 21

Answer 2

Below is an excellent entry about human height from Wikipedia. As you mentioned your use of drugs, including ETOH (or alcohol), it's evident that you're not doing the best for yourself in terms of self-care.

Things that we all need to do to feel best about ourselves are: 1-Eat healthy meals, starting with breakfast daily, including protein, starch, and fresh fruits and vegetables; 2-Get at least 7 hours of sleep every night; 3-Get a moderate 30 minutes of exercise at least 4 times a week (daily is even better). 4-Avoid chronic stress.

Healthy living will maximize your genetic potential. Don't reject yourself because you don't fit into someone else's idea of what you should be. Accept yourself as you are and take pride in that.

Answer 3

You've probably done most of your growing at this stage although the body keeps growing for a couple of years yet. I didn't stop growing entirely until I was 22. You'll find after that you'll be more likely to bulk out a little.

Answer 4

NO wonder your skinny....just LIFT WEIGHTS. That is all you
really need to do to get the look you desire. You don't seem to have a weight problem( gaining). So, stop burning off those extra
calories....and lift weights. You need to build your MUSCLE........
Plus, your finished growing, be happy that your not 6"5..!! I think
most girls like a guy justa little bit taller.

Answer 5

youll stop growing at around 21,
i tried this when i was 10 and it worked for me, hold yourself upside down for as long as you can, once a day - i grew 4 inches in 3 months

Answer 6

You will grow a lot until your about 25.

Answer 7

YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOUR HEIGTH WAS AT 18MONTHS OF AGE YOU TAKE THAT FIGURE TIMES IT BY 2 AND ADD 1" AND THAT GIVES YOU THE BEST ESTIMATE ON HOW TALL YOU'LL ACTUALLY GET.
