A member asked:
How to regain growth spurt? i didn't excercize or ate well at puberty (mom passed away) and smoked hookah daily, which of the above can stunt growth?

At maximum height: At 22 it is likely that you have finished growing + have reached your maximum height. It is hard to say if reached your height potential without knowing your height or the height of your parents. If you are experiencing extended grief (longer than 6 months), are having difficulty with exercise and eating and think are hooked on the hookah- it may be wise to talk with your doctor about depression.
