Searching the few psychiatric illnesses Holden could be displaying, we ultimately found out that he may be suffering from depression. With the loss of his brother, Holden is still holding onto memories and things him and Allie use to do while his brother was alive. Whenever he sees someone in a situation that’s less fortunate then his own, he always says is depresses him. But like we said, we had to research a little before being able to give Holden a diagnosis. Here’s what we came up with.
The first thing Celeste researched was the 5 stages of grieving. Using the Kuebler-Ross model, she found that the first stage is denial. Denial includes denying the loss of someone, withdrawing from social situations, and this usually lasts for about a week or so. The next stage, anger, comes with a little more. The person who has lost someone may be angry with that person for leaving them or at themselves for thinking they may have caused their death. The third stage is bargaining. Bargaining usually includes the person trying to make deals with God to get the lost one back into their lives. “I’d be a much better person if he came back.” Stage four brings up the big one: depression. Depression over a loss can last for years. It’s an important step in the grieving process because the person has time to think about the loss and see the good side of the situation. Finally, accepting that the person is gone is the last stage. It gives the person and the other people involved closure.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is an illness that usually comes after something traumatic or life changing has occurred whether it be good or bad. Sign of PTSD are: ---recurrent and intrusive recollections of an event, including images, thoughts or perceptions
-acting or feeling if the event were recurring
-intense psychological distress at exposure to internal or external cues that symbolize or resemble an aspect of event
-recurrent distressing dreams of the event
-physiological reactivity on exposure to internal or external cues.
Depression is the next thing we researched and think that Holden’s behavior matches pretty well. Depression is a serious psychological disorder where a person loses interest in activity, becomes more groggy and tired then usual, feels stages of extreme sadness or hopelessness, and sometimes experience thinking about suicide. Holden in the book says things about being so lonely and upset all the time, and even at one point takes it so far as to say he wanted to jump out of his window. These days, Holden would need to be diagnosed by a professional, put on medication, and attend therapy sessions to help manage his depression.
If Holden were to go through with his suicidal thoughts, even if his family isn’t that close to him, they would still feel horrible if he did decide to end his life. The impact of death on a family can go very many different ways. Here are some of the things families may go through after experiencing the loss of a member.
-Family seeks exclusion and retreats from others.
-Stays home more often does not go to the places they would normally go to when family member was still alive and avoids people as a whole. Families find it hard to talk about it even when it is the best thing to do. May avoid the subject all together. -Family members may encounter depression, anger.
- Siblings with loneliness or void. -Often family members’ room will be abandoned for x amount of years or until that use it needed. -If a family moves they may have others go through that family member’s room and get rid of everything except pics of that family member.
-Family feels no future and gets mad at every person that tries to tell them differently than what they want to hear.

What's Bothering Holden?: Andrea, Caitlin, Zach S., Jesse, Andrew
We researched 4 different disorders that seemed possible that Holden could have (Bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression, and post traumatic depression)
Bipolar Disorder:
symptoms include severe mood swings, repeated episodes of depression, irritable mood, racing thoughts, decreased need for sleep, impulsively, poor judgments, outburst of anger and rage/ anxiety.
People who suffer from it have a high risk of suffering from substance abuse and other mental health problems.
Males develop it earlier in life than females.
http://www.medicinenet.com/bipolar_disorder/page3.html
Although the irritable mood, racing thoughts, decreased need for sleep, and impulsively match Holden, the idea of mood "swings" and having other mental health problems do not.
Holden has never been happy or anything other than annoyed in the book, so it wouldn't be logical for Holden to be bipolar.
Schizophrenia:
Schizophrenia is a split personality disorder. It is a mental illness that affects men more than it does women.
The symptoms of psychotic mental disorders include thought, behavior and SOCIAL problems. Their thinking is completely out of touch with reality.
The symptoms of Schizophrenia include:
inhibition of facial expressions, lack of speech, LACK OF MOTIVATION, disorganized speech, and behaviors.
http://www.medicinenet.com/schizophrenia/page3.htm
This matches better with Holden based on the social problems and lack of motivation that really holds Holden back.
The five stages of grief are:
1. Denial and Isolation- deny the event that has taken place; lose contact with family and friends.
2. Anger- the grieving person may then be furious at the person who did it or at the world for letting it happen. He may be angry with himself for letting the event take place.
3. Bargaining- Now the grieving person may make bargains with God wanting things to change and go back to the way they were.
4. Depression- Person feels numb and lost in thought about everything
5. Acceptance- This is when it rally his them and understands it happened for a reason and they accept it.
Post Traumatic Stress is caused by seeing or experiencing a traumatic death or event.
www.memorialhospital.org
Post-Traumatic Disorder
the symptoms include:
Flashbacks of the event
-reliving the event
Avoidance
- Numbing yourself emotionally or acting like you don't feel anything
- Having no sense of future
- Staying away from situations/ places/ ect. that remind you of the event.
- Lack of interest in normal activities.
Arousal
- diffuculty sleeping
- irratibility or outburst of anger
- exaggerated responses to things that startle you.
"Survivor Guilt"
- headaches
- agitation
- paleness
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001923/
This disorder would also make sense with Holden. He has difficulty sleeping, exaggerated responses, no sense of future, lack of interest in normal things, and headaches.
We think that Holden either has Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or Schizophrenia.

What's Bothering Holden? By Terryl, Cody, Zach. B, Topher
The symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress are having very emotional thoughts when a name or place is brought up or when seeing picture/something which may resemble them or bring up a memory. Also people with this PTSD may feel emotionally numb, and they may loose sleep because of their harsh memories.
Also the five stages of grieving are: Denial where you say that the person is still alive. the second is anger, where you are mad at the person who died for dieing. the third stage is bargaining in this stage you relive past memories and then change your actions or what you said every time you relive the memory. The fourth stage is depression where you become lethargic and sad all the time. And the final stage is acceptance where you still miss the person but you can move on with your life and be among the living.
We think that Holden is in the Bargaining/Depression stages of the emotional process. He has re-occurring thoughts about his little brother, Allie, and lets it influence his life, and the way he converses with other people. Another reason we think Holden is stuck between these two stages is because when you lose someone who is that close to you it feels like your heart has been ripped in half. Also you feel like you can never move on because you feel like they were everything you ever had that made you happy. We think that Holden needs to get major help before he hurts himself or someone else.

Living on your own...
Holden Caulfield states that he would like to run away from home and live alone. He is very frustrated with his passage from teenager to adult. In order to get on the same page as Holden and what he is thinking about, you too will research how feasible it is to live on your own as a teenager by outlining how much it would cost, where you would live, where you would have to work, how much you would have to make, and what you would have to buy in this scenario.
Here is what your classmates have found out:
-------------
~TYLER, ZACH, SHANE, KRISTEN, ACE
Tyler-650
Ace- 0
Zach-600
Kirsten-500
Shane-700
When we combine how much each of us makes a month, it totals around $2450. We found an apartment located in Coralville that costs us 645 a month. We decided that Shane would take over the cost of rent, while Tyler would take care of all the utilities, then Zach would sell his $13,000 car and Tyler would sell his $1500 car, so we could pay for health insurance. We also decided that Kristen would take care of all needs that have to do with food or drink. Since Ace makes no money and has no car, she will have to get a job in order to pay for the gas that will go into Kristen and Shane’s car. We decided not to get car insurance because it seemed like an unnecessary expense. Any left over money we have we will spend on cheap second hand furniture or bring some from home. Zach and Tyler decided to split the cost of futon that cost 388.99. Tyler brought up getting a dog but he was shut down. Dogs are gross and expensive.
Over all it would be super hard to live on our own, but we could do it if we managed our money and all did our part in helping out. We decided to live in an apartment that pays for utilities so we could save money for more food, or clothes.
PAYMENTS
~ RENT—645
~FOOD—200
~GAS—128 (FOR TWO CARS)
~HEALTH INSURANCE—AT LEAST 800 A MONTH.

Topic 2: Andrea, Caitlin, Zach S., Jesse, Andrew
The Catcher in the Rye was a very controversial book during the 20th century and it still is very controversial today. There were many factors that had an impact on Americans in the 20th century. Some of these factors were the main character Holden Caulfield, which was a protagonist and antihero, its tone of sincerity, themes of family neglect, and the differences between teenagers and society. The biggest impact of all would have to be rebellion, and how it affects American teenagers. All of these factors impact today's Americans also. Catcher in the Rye was first published in 1951, and it is known for being read in high schools all around the country. Many children that have read this book have said they really liked it but others that have read it have said they hated it. One girl hated it so much she stabbed the book with a knife and put it on a BBQ grill and made it into a YouTube video. People who liked the book said they loved Holden's sense of rebellion and his overall character. On the other hand, people who hated it thought Holden was like a grumpy old man and could never see how he rebelled so much. Catcher in the Rye is on the list for being the third most challenged book. There are many reasons why this book was banned. The use of sexual contact, offensive language, and the undermining of family values and morals, these are a couple of big reasons why the book was banned. Parents didn't want their children reading this type of book. They believed it encouraged teen rebellion and promoted drinking, smoking, and sexual behavior. This was why the book was banned from libraries. Another controversial point about the novel was when Mark Chapman shot John Lennon and handed the police a copy of Catcher in the Rye. Inscribed in the book was a sentence from Chapman, “This is my statement, from Holden Caulfield.” Chapman was acting out because of what he read in the novel, and how much rebelling he saw from Caulfield. You can now see why Catcher in the Rye was such a controversial point in history. Many people were affected by the novel back then and you can see how many people are affected nowadays.

The Catcher in the Rye is the tenth most frequently challenged book from 1990-1999, and again in 2005. In total, it has been the third most challenged book. Most of the challenges are because of vulgar language, blasphemy, undermining family and moral values, encouragement of rebellion, and promoting drinking, smoking, and promiscuity, but with sexual content being the biggest reason. Three assassinations occurred, including Mark David Chapman’s shooting of John Lennon, with the assassin having a copy of the book on their person. This has brought up a lot of controversy toward the book.
The book also challenged many values in the 1950’s. It features Holden as an outspoken teen, which many some people can connect with. This is because he recognizes negativity in society and helps the helpless. Most teens go throw identity crisis’ where they don’t know who they are. Holden alienated himself from society, where people don’t understand and no one is truly honest. Betrayal is also a big factor. Most teen boys don’t mature as well as ladies do in high school. This book really relates to teen’s lives and the language Holden speaks is what most teens say anyway, so one can really connect to Holden. Teens in the 1950’s also thought it shouldn’t be banned because they though it related to problems they had. Many of them have similar feelings as Holden does: against the aspects of life.
When the book was first published, the publishers had strong feelings for it’s readers. Many said it reflects the conflicted feelings and emotions of teenagers. Some say it does encourage the rebellious. Other critics say Holden is being an innocent adrift in a troubled world. Others blame him for inspiring discord in adolescence.

Since 1960 The Catcher in the Rye has been one of the most banned books for many different reasons. One of the main reasons is because of the sexual content used in the book. Many parents do not wish for their children to learn about this from a book. Another reason it is one of the most books is because of the offensive language. In 1960 a teacher in Tulsa, Oklahoma was fired because she assigned this book to her class. The teacher was later given her job back, but the book was still banned. In 1963 a couple of high school students parents asked the school board to ban The Catcher in the Rye and many other books. Many schools have also banned this book because many people believe the book is “anti-white”
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/162077/banned_book_the_catcher_in_the_rye.html
Since The Catcher in the Rye was published in 1951 many people have stated their opinion on the book and the role it has played in their life. Many people have said they do not like the book because it is boring and uneventful. On the other hand there are many upsides people have discussed about the book. One person said that J.D. Salinger used very good symbolism, and metaphors. Because of the offensive language and sexual content used in the book some people have even stated that this book has given them the urge to go out and do things they wouldn’t have done before. Mark Chapman who shot John Lennon, was arrested with a copy of the book. He stated that the book ,which he had signed by John Lennon earlier in the day, made him shoot John. Malcolm Jones once said about the book "any allure the book might have had as 'forbidden goods' was stripped away the day the first English teacher put it on a required-reading list."

When Catcher in the Rye first came out, teenagers had a wide range of reactions to the book. Some find Holden as a friend and can really relate to him, but others absolutely hate him and don't find him as a teenager but more as a grumpy old man with a lot of issues. The ones who like Catcher feel like Holden is going through things that are similar to them so that’s why they like it. However some teenagers hate the book so much that they even go as far as burning the book in a barbecue grill after stabbing it. I.E. Becky Johnston-Carter.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZPaylaRp58
Book reviews for this book range from good to bad. Some people think that J.D. Salinger did a perfect job portraying the story of a teenage boy growing up. The think that the way that the author shed light on the Holden’s growing pains and muddled up thoughts were extremely descriptive and very accurate. One of the big reasons that Catcher in the Rye was so popular was because it was so believable. Many people say that they would do exactly as Holden had done in most of the situations he found himself in. They saw Holden as very relatable. However some other critics have seen Catcher in the Rye as hard to follow and very random. They don’t like Salinger’s style of writing or Holden’s constant cussing. Although some of the reviews for this book were bad, over all people liked or loved the book and could very easily relate to Holden.

Topic 2: Terryl, Cody, Zach Bogs, Topher
The book Catcher in the Rye, by J.D. Salinger, was released in 1951. Within just two weeks of its release, the book became a New York Times best seller. Nine years later, in 1960 an English teacher in Tulsa, Oklahoma a teacher was fired for assigning the book to high school students. The teacher later won the argument, but the book was not a novel students were required to read. A group of people in Columbus, Ohio said that the book was anti-white. The book was later banned for excess vulgar language, sexual scenes, excessive violence, and themes resembling an occult. The book was banned from libraries from 1966 to 1975. In 1975, the book was “dubbed” a classic novel, and was taken off the list. Even recently, the book has had some controversy. A mother in Florida is trying to get the book back on the banned book list. Her reasoning is that it contains improper language, and t uses the Lord’s name in vein. Another group of people who have strong ideas about this book is the teenagers.Teenagers reaction on catcher in the rye are some but there are some people who do have major opinions on this book. Like Becky Johnston-Carter she had such a huge opinion that she took her copy of Catcher in The Rye and she stabbed it with a knife and then she barbecued it so she could see the book burn. Another teenager named Zoe Miller loves the story so much that her copy of the book is tauten and torn around the edges. So teenagers do have opinions on this book and they range on all sides. Also with so many people having strong ideas on this book some people thought instead of actting out they would send J.D Salinger letters. There were several letters to J.D. Salinger about why his book was banned. He never answered those specific questions. Some of the letters were winners of several different websites that give out awards to the writers of the letters. Some of which were Letters About Literature and Humanities Tennessee.
