Plosives stuttering, including 'P,' 'M,' and 'B' Hello, I'm a 17 year old senior in high school and I recently just got back into speech therapy, as my parents believed my speech got better, when it became worse in reality. I was looking for any feedback, if anyone knew anything about how to ease my words out, as I stutter with certain initials on words. For examples, 'P' words such as Picnic, 'B' words such as Bake, and 'M' words such as More are the main initials I stutter on. When I try to say those words, whether it is for a presentation, speech therapy practicing, I just can't seem to get them out, even when I try easy onset, so I tend to force them out, which obviously makes it worse. Is there anything that I'm doing wrong?
