Off Label is an AI-hosted podcast by Dr. Steve Rondeau’s digital twin. It explores the limits of DSM-based diagnosis and the promise of brain-informed psychiatry. From mislabeled symptoms to overlooked patterns, we examine how mental health can evolve beyond outdated frameworks toward something more precise, personal, and real.

Toward Prevention: Understanding Suicide Risk Through Brainwaves
Episode Description
In this episode, your AI hosts explore Dr. Steven Rondeau’s co-authored review on one of the most urgent questions in mental health: can brain activity reveal suicide risk before it’s too late?
We delve into the emerging science of qEEG and its potential to uncover high-risk neural patterns—often invisible to standard psychiatric interviews. From altered frontal delta and theta activity to asymmetries in alpha and beta bands, this episode breaks down how suicidal ideation and suicide attempts may be rooted in distinct neural circuits, even in individuals without a depression diagnosis.
What does it mean when a non-depressed individual’s EEG reveals high-risk patterns? Could these markers help move us beyond subjective assessments and into the era of precision suicide prevention? This is a must-listen for clinicians, researchers, and anyone passionate about advancing mental health through neuroscience.
