Stanley...i can understand what you r going through mentally...i would suggest you d following remedies:
1.if your parents are also tall.. then nothing much can be done to either decrease or control d height..its genetic.
2.as far as i feel 6 ft is not a very out of proportion height...your problem is tht u r slim..because of which u look more taller.
3.try some weight gaining powder or protein powder if u work out,u can eat foods like banana,rice which helps in increasing d weight...n lastly
4.try to give some attention to your dress when going out..if you wear long pants with short T shirt u will look more tall...similarly avoid tight fitting cloths...try long kurta with pants..it will make u more confident.
