For me, I think my own distaste for Holden and the way he chose to (not) deal with his issues comes from the fact that during my own adolescence and early adulthood, I was struggling with mental health issues myself and had absolutely no one and nothing to support me at all, and at the same time was expected by several people in my life to take up the weight of their emotional problems (that they wouldn't do anything to mitigate) as well with no return. One in particular was constantly having breakdowns and dumping huge problems on me etc but absolutely refused to make better choices or do anything at all to fix any of her issues. Did not want to take any responsibility at all for her mental state. If you haven't been in a situation like that you have no idea how terribly it burns you out. So I get what it says up there about resenting people who won't take responsibility for their own situation; I've been the person who had to carry the weight of others who wouldn't take charge of their own situation, when I had to carry it and my own problems all alone. It does build a ton of resentment when you see someone who won't do it and you know that someone else will have to pick up the slack and that someone will oftentimes either be you or someone else like you.
