You're tall and depressed not that am tall o am actually 5.6 but i reached the final stage of screening for 78rri nigerian army. I was called again to check my height carefully.

I wasnt screened out but i was singled out cos of my height. Mehn ya really lucky to be that tall. Girls love tall guys and it makes u attractive and cute.

I wish i could be 5.8 or maybe 6.2 like u. Dude be very grateful.

Even 5.8 is still short. No mind dat langa langa boy jare grin

Take my advise,
You are lucky to be that tall.
Hit the gym once a while to build your body and you’ll regain your self esteem!

Next!!!
Best advice.

Thanks for the write up!
Indeed a fitness routine helps you release stress and stay active throughout the day. One should always take out time for a quick workout session. Dmoose Fitness

I guess you are in Naija.

When you visit western countries you will have a reverse depression when you realise how short you are.

I am 6:2 though at a full age but when I see some really tall guys and even ladies below 18, I just hide my face.

U know Akpu no dey grew allow Nigerians tall grin

Am 19yrs old and I am 188cm i.e 6.2ft. I feel so awkward about my height. I feel that am no longer tall but long, for a very long time now i hated everything about my height to the extent I feel very sad and depressed every day.

As a result of that, I've lost confidence in myself and also my self-esteem is nothing to write home about.

This has made me an introvert and I don't socialize.

So pls tall dudes out there, I want to know how you deal with your self esteem and confidence and also how you approach comments about your heights cuz am gradually going insane!!!

Lol.... so funny.
I used to feel like you back in the days. I never realized my height would be one of the thing people would admire about me, especially ladies.


When you get to your mid-20 and early 30s you will be grateful to God for creating you a tall person. I have been there, so chill.

Being tall commands respect. Be thankful. Or maybe you would have preferred to have been born a dwarf.

Go learn basketball and turn it into a financial asset for yourself.
Re: I'm Depressed Over My Height by OVikkytan49: 4:19pm On Nov 26, 2019
70% of short people (especially males) would wish to be almost as tall or even tall as you are, and you're there, depressed over your height?
Don't worry boy, you'll soon get over it.

yea am skinny

But not that skinny tho

Come, awe, u shouldn't feel depressed at all.
At ur age u might look skinny but as u mature, everywhere will fill out and you'll begin to see the advantage of ur height and stature. wink
Re: I'm Depressed Over My Height by Amoto94(m): 4:22pm On Nov 26, 2019
Don't feel too bad about yourself because your height is a gift and strength, if you aren't paying attention to basketball or athletics do consider doing so. I'm the same height with you and when I talk people listen because I have positive things to say. Read far and wide also because with it comes knowledge and power to communicate effectively.

When I first saw this topic, for a quick second I thought you were a midget...You are 6'3 tall and you're depressed?? What is your problem?
Do you know how many folks out there that want to have your height?

Abeg, go to the gym, start to pump iron on a regular, eat well and surround yourself with good people....With time, your confidence will build up and all will come together.

And please stop crying and be grateful.
It is well.

I'm 180cm,I wish I can get to 184cm or 185cm because it'd help me in football.People tell me I'm tall but I get pissed off sometimes because I don't feel that tall. That's life sha,to everyone shorter than you, you're tall. To everyone taller than you,you're short. My elder brother is around 175cm. My parents should be around 170cm(mum) and 173cm(dad). I'm actually blessed,I shouldn't be this tall. God has a reason

If I hear you mention ‘low self esteem and lack of confidence’ again, I’ll find you and deal with you.

Go and ask Aki and Pawpaw how they felt before they became popular.

Your only problem should be finding the right shoe size. Aki and Pawpaw used to shop for shoes at the children’s and babies stores.
Guess how they’d feel if it was possible to get a few inches off you?
