When I met , I was introduced to Selective Mutism. So I made a comic about it starring her, little knowing that it would be one of my most well received comics to date.
So Cherry became an official character and an unofficial spokesperson for Selective Mutism.

I would just like to say how much I LOVE Cherry. I have SM (although it's undiagnosed, and many of my friends don't know about it...) which up until recently hasn't been too much of an issue (hence why it's undiagnosed), although now I can't talk in school at all... But I love Cherry, just because this is the first time I've been seeing anything related to SM that I can ACTUALLY relate to. I mean... I just can't talk pretty much anywhere besides home. I'm perfectly okay with other ways of communication (in my case, sign language), but actually speaking I have trouble with. Seeing Cherry is actually helping me to gain some confidence to tell SOMEONE what's REALLY been wrong with me.
Cherry by far my favourite character, it gives me chance to not use text to describe her character. I'm sure the real Cherry will be honoured to know that she has inspired you ^^
You should be extra proud of this character because of the reach and impact she has had. I never knew such a condition existed and its because of Cherry I found out. She's darling and a sweetheart whenever I see her in the strips. But I will remember that she is plotting world domination. And make sure I bake cookies. Or tickle her.
If you speak to Cherry in real life, she will tell you that she has a dark side and is actually rather mean. But in truth she has been nothing but darling to me
Bwa I love Cherry! And It's scary... I'm alot like her... around strangers I think I have Selective Mutism... I wanna say stuff cause i have a good idea but when glancing at me u just see my mouth looking like it doesn't work anymore and i forgot how u do english lol.... *facedesk* ai-ya...

I get like that though, I babble with people all the time. Selective Mutism is more when you actually cant say anything to people, not a word
Well either way... I suck at communicating with people... Yay
