A bunch of us in the #stuttering community advocated for stuttering to be included in Sonny’s updated graphic :) @ezrarising.bsky.social #StutteringAwareness #StutteringAcceptance

National #Stuttering Acceptance Week is May 12-18 🗣️ Comics written by me & drawn by #SarahMStories Bottom left is inspired by a @ninagcomedian.bsky.social joke Bottom right is inspired by an article by #GrantMeredith #StutteringAwareness #StutteringAcceptance #NSAW #NSAW25 #NSAW2025 #Stammering

1st comic is a cartoon version of me. I’m saying “I don't stutter due to being nervous or anxious. Stuttering is neurological, NOT psychological.” 2nd comic is a cartoon version of me. I’m wearing a Batman shirt. I’m saying: All of us stutter differently. When a person who stutters says
"Batman," it might come out like "Buh - buh - buh - Batman (a repetition) or "...Batman" (a silent block before the word comes out)."
3rd comic is a cartoon version of Nina G Comedian. She’s saying: 
"Please be patient with me when I'm
speaking. Don't interrupt me or make hand gestures to rush me. I know what to say, but it just takes a bit more time to say it."
4th comic is a cartoon version of Grant Meredith. He’s saying: 
"Not all people who stutter want to be fluent. Some of us prefer to stutter with pride."

If you ever wonder why our lab stays motivated to research stuttering, or whether funding for speech research is justified, just watch this very powerful video by Drew Lynch: youtu.be/Hyua6Mgl_Yg?si=-jwI5V

Top 5 Stuttering Moments

2025-04-04

@ninagcomedian.bsky.social was the #stuttering comedian who inspired me to take improv classes! (Other than an episode of The Office) 😂 Performed improv comedy for over 5 yrs (stopped a few years before the ongoing pandemic) & a bit of stand up comedy 😁 “Stuttering Loudly” was my improv name

Here are 2 other stuttering disclosure cards that are available online 2nd one is actually the same card as the 1st, but it’s the back #Stuttering #Stammering #StutteringAwareness #StammeringAwareness

RE: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:ne6c7wj3gsizqhwsr5iyuhid/post/3llrw2lriqc2w

1st card reads: 
I AM A PERSON WHO STUTTERS
Please listen without interrupting or finishing my sentences, allow me to speak at my own pace, and be patient, kind, and respectful.
For more information and resources about stuttering, visit
WeStutter.org

The back of the 1st card reads: 
National Stuttering Association 
Stuttering is a natural speech difference characterized by repetitions, prolongations, and blocks. It does not reflect intelligence, confidence, or emotional stability and is not caused by anxiety, nervousness, or a lack of effort. Around 1% of the world's population stutters.

2nd card reads:
Please be Patient
PERSON who STUTTERS
I may..•
Experience Difficulty Speaking
Avert my Gaze or Make Unexpected Movements
Have Repetitions, Prolongations or Blocks
endorsed by...
AMERICAN INSTITUTE FOR STUTTERING
NATIONAL STUTTERING ASSOCIATION
Please wait for me to finish speaking.
It's easier for me to write down my thoughts.
