She is a sixteen year old girl who is admitted into a mental hospital by her parents by the advice of what her doctor told them to do. She was admitted after attempting suicide. In some incidents she will seep into her own world named Yr while in a conversation with others and laugh at inappropriate times. She also had her own language named Yri which she would randomly start to being into the real world when talking with others in the hospital. She started having these troubles after having a tumor removed; she felt pain when the doctors said it was normal and in reality her pain was not normal.

Deborah connects to the theme because when fear is involved, it usually means Deborah is the one fearing something. The reader can see indirectly that she is a smart girl because she can tell when others are lying to her (Greenberg
