    If I could talk to Holden I would just talk to him. Holden is reaching out to anyone he can and seems like he just needs someone to talk to and listen. Holden is very vulnerable and could really use a friend or even someone who could relate to him in a time like this.

    I will talk to him kind of encourage him to stick to find a goal in his life and deal with the problems in his life and do not stop front any problem do not give up because life is not sweet all the time.

    I would offer him someone to talk to so that he can get it out of his system. So that he can focus more on homework and other things. I would help him with his personal problems.

    Holden seems to need a friend more then anything. Haldon needs a friend that will stand by him and help him though his abnormally difficult life. Holden also needs to talk about his little brothers death to someone; it doesnt matter who he talks to about it, just a source to vent too. By talking about his problems, it will help him develope his own thoughts about it and provide some clarity and reliefe from the mounting stress he's been feeling.

    i would help Holden by giving him someone to talk to, Holden needs a friend. I would be the friend he could go to in order to discuss his family problems, school problems, etc.

    I think all Holden needs right now is a friend. The reason he is so depressed is because he has nobody to express his concerns to. So I would offer him my friendship and I would talk with him and give him a chance to vent. I think Holden having a friend will clear his head basically, and give him an opportunity to just be happy.

    I would give Holden a chance to let everything out. He does some self venting, but the problem with that is that you don't get any feedback. If you have someone talking to you that's not emotionally attatched to the situation, they can help you see things that you can't because your emotions are getting in the way; and I feel thats what Holden's problem is. So I would just listen to him and give him feedback on what he was telling/asking me.

    I would offer holden friendship, the key part why holden is always depressed and unhappy is because he lacks friendship.

    At this point if i could help Holden i would be there for him as a friend and someone to talk to. Maybe travel around with him just so he's not alone.

    I would just listen. If he wants to talk about his life, that's fine. But I wouldn't be pushing him to do something. That wouldn't help him, only make him push it away. What he really needs is someone to just listen to him. He needs someone to vent to.

    The way i would help hollden is by just talking to him and understand where he is coming from. I think that is all he needs is a friend that well truly listen to him and be there for him.

    i would help him to try to get out of the struggle he is going through because he seems like a great kid and doesnt deserve to have as much bad luck that he has

    If I were to talk to Holden, I would want to be his friend since he doesn't have lots of friends at this moment and listen to him about his lifetime. Then I would offer him advice on how he can have a better life. Having a talk with him can get his mind straightened out.

    I'd tell him very bluntly stop being a tosser and get a new opinion on people and their ideals.
