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...

In this episode, we dive into Dr. Steve Rondeau’s paper on the neurophysiology of negative self-talk — especially how perfectionism can wire the brain for constant self-criticism. We break down how distorted thinking patterns like all-or-nothing beliefs and catastrophizing don’t just affect your mood. They show up in measurable brain activity, particularly through Posterior Alpha Asymmetry (PAA). The research highlights how perfectionism fuels these cognitive loops and how PAA may serve as a ...
