Prescription

Prescription  Caulfield will need to make some major decisions and changes in his life if he wants to make a full recovery. He needs to convince his entire family to go to death counseling. They can do it together or separately. Caulfield has not gotten over his brother's death and needs to talk about it to someone. Caulfield should also join attend a group meeting. At the meeting he will meet other teenagers who have also lost a sibling. I also think Caulfield should attend a school close to home so that he can live at home. Families should be together when they have experienced a death. Holden should take a health course to educate himself about relationships and sex. This will make him feel more comfortable towards the subject. Caulfield should also have a sit down talk with his parents to discuss his future. Having an uncertain future will cause him to create no goals for himself. He should also needs to eat and sleep more. At is age, a certain amount of sleep and a certain amount of food eaten are necessary for good health. I think Holden needs to take an actual vacation, preferably with his family. this way they can connect with each other better and escape their troubles one last time before facing them. He should lso consider abolishing his smoking and drinking habits because they could cause ling term consequences, like lung cancer and alcoholism.
