Holden seems to go back and forth with his inner struggles. One minute he's happy-go-lucky and the next he wants to kill himself. I believe the death of his favorite brother, Allie, started his psychotic behavior. I also believe that the pressures of his parents to want him to succeed in school has added to his behavior. I don't think he needs councilng but he does need someone to talk to in order to relive his stress. I forget he's sixteen because of his raunchy language and mature mind set. Yes, I do feel sorry for him. I think he's confused and needs some direction in his life.
