The Architecture of Agency: Why 'In Control' is a Brain Requirement | Ep 76

Without agency, the brain defaults to despair. In this episode of No Nonsense Psychiatry, we look at the Locus of Control—the degree to which you believe you have power over the outcomes in your life. We examine how an "External Locus" (blaming luck, fate, or others) correlates with high rates of anxiety and depression. We provide three actionable ways to reclaim your "Internal Locus" by focusing on the small, manageable variables that prove to your brain you are still the pilot.
