Looking For Alaska by John Green p. 166-212

One character in Looking For Alaska that I sympathize for is one of the main chracters Alaska. In the beginning when the Alaska is first introduced she seems very happy and wild. She also had the perfect relationship and was in love. It seemed like she had a perfect life.

But as I continued reading I realized that Alaska had alot of problems and that she was really depressed, even though in the beginning she came off as very happy with her life. As I read I discovered alot of the problems Alaska was facing and the many problems she had to face in her past. I deffinently sympathize for her, even tho I can't relate to the problems that she was facing.

did you or did you ever have a friend who seemed happy, but was really having alot of problems?

No, I have never had a friend who seemed happy, but was really having alot of problems, well not that i know of. If I did I will try to help them and make them feel like they belong in this world. Some people bottle up their feelings and commit suicide. They have no one to talk to so they just take their life to get rid of their feelings or might even cut themselves to release their pain.
