Paperback. Condition: Fair. A powerful and wise account of a woman's lifelong struggle with Tourette's syndrome and obsessive-compulsive disorder   "Affecting, gripping--no matter what form the reader's own struggles for acceptance may have taken."--Elle I am crazy. But maybe I am not.   For most of her life, these thoughts plagued Amy Wilensky as her mind lurched and veered in ways she didn't understand and her body did things she couldn't control.
