it is cope, unless you are a toddler or a kid it sleeping more wont influence your height, sleep only seems to affect height in super nutrient deprived populations, and there is zero evidence linking sleeping more to an increased height while you are a teen

i doubt OP is deprived of sleep in any way.

the things you see on the internet, like "drink more milk", "sleep more", "eat more protein" is just for increasing your chances of reaching your pre determined genetic potential.

your body will go through hell just to reach its genetic potential.

"Claim: Getting 10+ hours of deep sleep (especially "nighttime only") spikes growth hormone (GH) tons of growth hormone release aiding or even creating a super charged environment and can even aid surpass your self genetic limitations.
Debunk: Sleep is crucial for reaching your genetic height potential during childhood and in some parts adolescence, but won't make you surpass your established genetic potential, as this process does not re-code your DNA . GH does indeed get secreted by controlled release in pulses during deep slow-wave sleep (especially early in the night), and chronic sleep deprivation can suppress GH and stunt growth in kids if severe and long term. However, research conducted on very young children ("toddlers to age 3") revealed that an extended nighttime sleep (≥11.5 hours vs. ≤9) is associated with an increased chance of achieving a "tall stature" (above the 75th percentile), with adjusted odds ratios reaching 1.25 in substantial group studies such as the Japan Environment and Children's Study. Overall sleep duration (including naps) showed no significant correlation to make a difference, but rather, adequate nighttime deep sleep is what truly affects GH pulses and matters the most for increased adult height. And for the rest? Nothing, zero evidence that could prove sleep is crucial and insufficient evidence that sleep deprivation directly causes height deficits in well-nourished populations and adolescents fitting in that percentile.Sleep matters for brain function more and is dependent, this is not to promote not sleeping, but to understand the limitations from it and that it won't make you surpass your genetic potential." @PSLGOD1899 https://looksmax.gg/threads/heightmaxxing-101.23527/
