So which is it? Are you thinking of faking a throat injury, or has it "always worked for you?" [As you said in another thread six days ago?](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/1bpk2q9/comment/kwwq003/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) Not sure what OP is up to, but this ain't the place for it. What work have you put into your fluency? Instead of lying to people about a throat injury, work on your problems. There's no tricks that will benefit you. Tricks get old. And when someone remembers you as the guy who lied about a throat injury, you're not doing yourself any favors. My suggestion to you is to work on your honesty and your fluency. Dishonesty is often a problem paired with stuttering. The sooner you correct that, the better off you'll be. This is a great community. We're here to help and support each other. But I have no patience with liars or trolls.
