| Sommario/riassunto: | Gary Grahl was both handsome and popular, a boy whose athletic abilities attracted the attention of the big leagues . . . until ""IT,"" a shaming inner-voice that convinced him to be ever thinner. His out-of-control compulsion to exercise and starve himself led to multiple hospitalizations, and a life and death battle to win control over the pervasive and dangerous ""IT.""Skinny Boy is a powerful story showing how anyone can win the internal battle between mind and body, and triumph over the out-of-control thoughts and feelings common to many mental disorders.
