There's no exact answer for as to what type of depression he has. However, we can be sure that it's serious enough that he has to see a proffesional. If you read the first chapter, he keeps saying "before I had to come out here to relax." Basically, he's talking to a shrink the whole time. The author has put the reader in the doctor's place. A few people have wanted to contact the author to ask what Holden's condition was, but he's a bit of an introvert. He keeps to himself, won't talk about his book, and doesn't give interviews. He wants us all to come up with our own opinions and ideas about his work.
