Folks, it seems like I'm having a constant battle on here at times. I appreciate I may have aroused some envy/jealousy from some members, but please there is absolutely no need for that. What I've done, anyone can do. Also, I can assure you I am not someone who's always had it easy, in fact the opposite and I've had my share of setbacks. If it makes anyone feel any better, I am going through a pretty down and depressing time right now. I won't go into the details, but suffices to say they involve deep felt personal and family matters.
As a final word on CLL, I will say this: it will make you taller, that's it. Nothing more. And whatever advantages that brings is up to you.
It won't solve all your problems in life. You still have to work at those. Furthermore, CLL is not for lazy people. Someone on here said you should only do CLL when you've bettered yourself in almost every other aspect. That is certainly true. And needless to say you must really be motivated to achieve your goal.
Moreover, you should only do such an extreme procedure for yourself and no one else. However, having said that, there is a difference between a single person wanting to do this and one who is in a committed relationship. For the latter, of course the opinion of the other matters. LL can have a significant impact and/or put strains on your relationship you didn't think were possible.
Also there is little value in asking others' opinions or telling others about it. You should do CLL for how you would feel about yourself at your new height, for your confidence, your self esteem, your relationships. Height commands respect, there is no doubt about it, but there are many highly successful people who lack height - from Hollywood actors to world leaders, and it certainly hasn't held them back, so doing CLL is very much a personal choice.
Then there is the financial aspect. A rich kid having this done at their parents' expense at age 20 is very different to someone at 30 who has worked hard to save up. The money could be put to other uses for the betterment of your life, so think carefully. Like everything else, CLL should be seen as an investment. Will the return on the investment be worthwhile?
Chances are if you are a miserable type of person, you will return to that state soon after your CLL, the misery just shifts elsewhere. i.e. you will find other things to occupy it. From all the stories I've read on here, I'd say the user TheW was the best candidate for CLL. He is someone already quite successful in life at his height, is mature enough, has the means and realistic expectations. He doesn't need CLL for anything other than what it is - a couple of extra inches.
