Am I the only one ?

I’m 5’11”+ with a 28 1/2” stand over .
I just bought a new medium frame Specialized Rockhopper and I’m having trouble with it fitting me . When I stand over the toptube, I’m touching . With the seat post all the way down , I having to hop on the saddle as I push off to get rolling .
I feel like a little kid trying to ride a big guys bike .
I’m not a small guy , I’m just out of proportion.
Once I’m up on the bike , I feel like I’m riding a road bike , all of my weight is on my hands and it’s killing my 68 year old wrists .
