wow really? that sucks for your friend, I'm currently in high school and have seen teachers drinking at the local bowling alley.

What made you get into the psychiatric field? I've noticed many people get into it because they have had depression themselves and want to help others. Have you always been happy with your career decision? Is it hard keeping the right amount of distance/closeness to your patients? Have you ever gotten to wrapped up?

Sorry for so many questions!

I just wanted to say, out of all the books I was forced to read during high school, yours (Fallen Angels) was absolutely amazing. My English teacher was always trying to push the limits to give us real world perspective and I'm glad he chose this book. As a teenage girl I probably would have never chosen a book about Vietnam, but this book opened my eyes to so much about what really goes on during war. How do you feel about having one of the most banned books, yet the same book being taught to a freshman class? Also, did you have any idea that Fallen Angels would become so famous and infamous at the same time?

Thanks for the reply! I'm speechless though, I had no idea you went through that. All I can say is you were very brave for writing the book, it must have taken a lot of courage. You've connected to so many people.
