Deb Morgan, the author of the Amazon best-selling memoir “Graceful Agony: An Intimate Memoir of Living with Fibro & Chronic Fatigue,” has published a new book titled “Breaking The Silence: Confronting Guilt and Shame in the Chronic Pain World” for readers who suffer from chronic pain, and loved ones.
According to the ‘Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,’ as of 2021, approximately 20.9% of U.S. adults (51.6 million people) experienced chronic pain, and 6.9% (17.1 million people) experienced high-impact chronic pain. Along with the diagnosis of chronic pain, which is beyond one’s control, it can induce feelings of shame and guilt that most times come from stigma.
‘Breaking The Silence’ is an exceptional and easy-to-read guidebook that offers various tools and techniques to help those diagnosed with chronic pain or any chronic illness that involves pain as a symptom. Reading this book can help one navigate through chronic pain and overcome feelings of shame and guilt, and it also facilitates open communication between chronic pain sufferers, their families, and friends.

About the Author →
Debra Morgan
Debra Morgan is a celebrated author and advocate who writes about addiction recovery, fibromyalgia, mental health, and high-impact chronic pain. Her latest books include “Graceful Agony,” a bestseller on Amazon, and “Breaking the Silence,” aimed at those with chronic pain. Debra draws on her personal experiences to provide support and hope to her readers. All her books are available on Amazon Kindle and B&N and featured on fine literary sites.
For Deb, it was not about being a survivor but learning to thrive again while easing the path for others facing their fibro challenges. The author was born and raised in Colorado and lived in Arizona until 2012 when she moved to Oregon. Meanwhile, missing her grown children and grandchildren, she moved back to Arizona in 2021. She has been featured as a guest on many podcasts and radio shows, sharing her recovery journey while raising awareness about addiction. She has maintained sobriety since 1993.
With her diagnosis of Fibro in 2005 and other medical conditions, she is committed to her recovery of healing while helping others do the same as a tireless advocate and a woman who has come out the other side of addictions, trauma, and much more as a “Survivor and Warrior.” Today, Deb is focused on writing and sharing her experiences with Fibro and chronic fatigue/pain; as heart-tugging as the downside can be, it is one of pure perseverance.
The author has been happily married to her soulmate and is a mother of two grown, successful children. She enjoys reading, painting, and traveling when not advocating, speaking, or writing. Her “#1 happy place” is spending much time with all the grandchildren she adores. Deb and her husband continue to reside in Chandler, Arizona.
