I have recently been reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. The book is about a Kid named Charlie tha goes to high school and he writes letters to an unknown person about his life. He says hes not going to tell the person whos reciving the letters who he is but he kinda does it any way. So far in the book I have noticed that Charlie thinks alot so it brings him down.
Charlie can think alot about memories he has from a long time ago and it could make him feel depressed. For example, there was this time where Charlie, Sam, and Patrick were at a football and Charlie sees a players which reminds him of a party of long ago. He remebers that his siblings were going to have a party, he had to stay in his room. this couple comes in the room, the football player starts touching the girl but she says refuses. At the football game Charlie reliazed that the grl was being raped. he gets this anger now when he sees the football player, but it also makes him feel bad for the girl. I think Charlie doesn't really understands things at first but when he does he gets string feelings which make him bring himself down.
Another time Charlie brought himself down was when he rembered his aunt. He rembered that he didnt cry for Aunt Helen when she died. Aunt Helen was going to buy charlie his presents for chirstmas and his birthday when she got into a accident, she died there. when his mom gave him the news he was upset, indenial, confused but yet he didnt cry. I think Charlie think about things because he thinks its his fault. Like he could've stoped the guy at the party, or at least called for help. But he let it happen, when his sister came in the room she called him a perv. He also realizes that Aunt Helen was on her way to buy Charlie his two presents. One for christmas one for his birthday, she was the only one who game him to seprate presents.
In conclusion, Charlie always thinks about memories and they bring him down. This connects to humanity because, everyone always wants someone to blame. People belive that its ALWAYS someones fault, and if it isnt someone will find one. Which lead them to feel bad about themself and deppressed and all.
