You should phrase the first sentence like this:
1. Regardless of how misery transforms a person, many people want to get rid of the feeling.
The second sentence is okay, although I would suggest changing things to committing actions that seem out of the ordinary.
The third sentence is okay and I believe the citation is correct but I'm not completely sure. Check a website and if your essay is in MLA format, you should click on that and go from there. Good luck!
Thanks. That really helped me out.
JM is correct, and yes, the citation is done correctly!
