Dear Teentalker,
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns.
It's truly wonderful that you are taking so much interest and reading a well known book like 'Catcher in the rye'. While the plot is interesting no doubt and as you suggested, there might be possibilities that you might be sharing some characteristics with the protagonist of the novel, though that doesn't necessarily mean that you're dealing with mental health related concerns.
