Unuaslly large for 14

Hello,
Ummmm..... since my last post i was worring about mny size when i was only 6'4 or so
But now im 6'6 and i just turned 14 and i don't know what to do, im just entering highschool and im nervous (because even though ill be in grade 9 ill be the tallest person in the school) and im scared everyone is gonna look at me and laugh (i already have enough emotion problems and im so Bi-polar sumtimes i cant even stand myself)
i don't know what to do as well being sorta different as meaning im FAT i wiegh a gross 275, and when people found out i became the laughing stalk of the town (and still am)
Altough i do play sports and have not many difficulties in the ladies department(execpt my looks) i am very unhappy in life and feel im doing nothing that matters so therefor i don't matter, i wish i could to prove to everyone i do,
And my goal for this year is to stop Self-Mutilation,
And im also worried i may start drugs this year (becuase i have a very addictive personality, and i fall into peer pressure alot)
im just so scared all of the time and i wish it could stop,
If anyone has any feedback or help i'd very much appriecate it
Thanks Zach,

Zach,

being tall and bigger is nothing to be embarrased about. Each and every person is different. I have a friend who is a little older then you and he is almost 6'8" and close to the same weight you are. No one laughs at him. If people in your town are laughing at you and making fun of you or insulting you then they must not be very good people.
Are there tall people in your family? If your growing abnormally fast have you gone to a doctor. i'm not saying you have to go to a doctor but there is a rare genetic problem where you cant stop growing. There is one boy whos had it for life and he is over 8 feet tall and he is the same age as you. Also there was a guy here in my town who at the age of 40 something happened to him health wise and all of a sudden he starting growing and they couldnt get him to stop. it was very hard on his full grown body. Hun i'm not trying to scare you so please dont freak out over that. Though one thing to take into account is that as you get taller your bone mass is going to weigh more, same with muscle. So your most likely not as "fat" as you feel you are. I believe that people look wayyy to much into weight and looks.

Everyone matters in their own special ways. By the sounds of it your a very active person. do you play football? might be a good sport for you.. I personally love football lol.

Have you thought about talking to a councellor? through school or outside of school.
I've had friends who did self mutilation and councelling helped them alot. They have never cut again.
I wish you luck with everything i really do

There's no reason to be ashamed. If you are a highly addictive person, then channel your energy into sports. Have you considered basketball or football? There's no reason to feel bad about yourself. You should focus on the positives.

If other people are making fun of you, it means they have nothing better to do with their lives. Don't pay attention to them. They just need some time to grow up, that's all.

You sound like a nice person, so if you feel that you are borderlining on something that you don't think is healthy for you then seek some help.

If you ever feel bad about yourself, just come onto this site and talk to us. Otherwise, you should definitely see a counsellor or a therapist to give you a comfortable environment to vent.

Are you actually fat?? or are you thinish && tall, because, when you're taller, you weigh more, because your bones are bigger.
I'm 5'8, and 119 pounds, i used to be 135, and people called me fat. but i wasen't, i was just tall. And preassure made me stop eating.so don't listen to them, they don't know what they're talking about. your wasting your time, by giving them thie time of dayyYOU do, your body is supposed to know how tall it's supposed to be. And you' going to be 6'6 the reast of your life, so if i were you. i deal with it lol, cuzz you won't get shorter.

I was always one of the shortest and smallest kids in my class -- opposite problem. Maybe you and I should go grocery shopping together -- me for the stuff on the bottom shelves and you can reach the high stuff.

Mrcuddlesworth agrees: Haha sure why not what's the harm of shopping

Well, your doctor will monitor your growth progress. Hey, I don't know how serious you are about basketball, but if you ever make it to the NBA, don't forget about us!!

Good luck with everything though. I'm sure you'll be fine. If you ever need to vent, you know we're here.
