I hate my height so much. I always feel like crying and just breaking down. I am so obsessed with it that I don't go a day not thinking about it, maybe not even a couple hours. I think i'm pretty in a way and hate my height. I can't even watch a movie without going on the internet and finding out how tall the girls were in that movie. I sounds stupid but i'm just so obsessed and my mom gets mad at me when i say I hate my height. How can I stop thinking about it? I am 5 foot 1 or a tad under that but taller than 5 foot. My mom says i'm still going to grow? I am not sure tho because I am 17 now (as of November). I want to buy a yoga video because I heard it can help to make you taller. Another thing is i'm skinny and tiney built ontop of being short so it just makes it 10 times worse. I don't wear tight clothes and don't go out in public without some type of heeled shoe. Am I still going to grow? My mom says I will and I am hopeing so...She says she can see that i'm getting taller?

Even though ppl are old too grow evey one grows with the proper care those old ppl are too short because they didnt follow the simple steps of being heathy and streching.
YOU will grow taller
i went to this place and they predicted how tall i was gonna be and i wasnt growwing more. they told me i could grow taller if i exercise eat more fruits vegis and of course MILK he said to try to not play soccer football gymnastics swimming(the muscle grown will take up ur growth space) and if ypu break a small or big part of ur bone ur growth stops bcause it takes time to heal and there goes ur growth time.
AND ALSO STREACH A LOTT ur legs and backbone
OK dont worry im short too:P

Girls usually stop growing at around 18 years old.
I think the important question is why are you letting your height determine your happiness and self worth. For years I would walk around hunched over because I thought I was freakishly tall. If 5' 1" is your height, then 5'1" is normal for you. Work on your self esteem and hold your head high( you'll look taller)

Some women do get growth spurts around age 20, but it is rare. I personally think that if you are this distraught over your weight, you should see a therapist to work through your feelings, because no one should be this miserable over their physical appearance. Besides, I know lots of women who could only wish they were as tall as you.

you're depressed because your 5'1 and you want to be 5'2? there's not much of a difference honey. i'm 21 and i'm 5'1 there's nothing wrong with it. You're only 17 you still have time to grow
