The character that I am diagnosing is the main character, Will Hunting. Will Hunting is a 20-year old janitor from South Boston. He had a rough childhood because of his abusive parents.

Despite Will’s demeanor, he has an unbelievable intellect that allows him to skate by most of the time.
The movie’s characters also describe the feeling of euphoria heroin gives them and all agree there is noting that can compare hence why they continue to use. The main character contuially going to court. He goes from heroin to cocaine. Scence when ex-drug user goes to a job interview on cocaine. I think its odd how he is trying to better his life by quitting drugs and getting a job but uses cocaine to perk himself up for the interview.

The two main characters in this movie are Dale Denton (Seth Rogen) a process server, and his drug dealer Saul (James Franco).

I feel like Charlie the main character is basically me and all the stuff I've been going through and I was very alone when I was in high school, and now I'm trying to move forward. Paragraph II a.)
