In this episode of Off Label, we unpack a paper by Dr. Steve Rondeau that tackles one of the biggest challenges in mental health care: diagnostic heterogeneity. When two patients present with the same symptoms but have entirely different underlying conditions, misdiagnosis becomes almost inevitable—and treatment suffers. The paper explains how overlapping symptoms, frequent comorbidities, and decades of generalized diagnostic frameworks contribute to high error rates and growing patient distr...

This week, we’re diving into Dr. Steven Rondeau’s October 2025 paper — “Demand Task Cognitive Slowing: EEG Theta or Delta Increase During Cognitive Tasks.” In this episode, we discuss what happens in the brain when cognitive demands increase — why processing slows down, how EEG reveals shifts in theta and delta brainwave activity, and what this means for performance, fatigue, and cognitive control. It’s not Dr. Steve speaking in this episode, but a discussion and breakdown of his published wo...
