This episode is a quick take in a new intermittent series I am calling “In a Word,” and in this series I hope to dig down into some neuropsychiatric terms that we use every day, but maybe don’t really understand very well.  The first word I am taking on is PERSEVERATION.  The reason I chose PERSEVERATION is because I see it written in psych notes by med studs and residents frequently, but for you Princess Bride fans out there, “You keep using this word.  I don’t not think it means what you think it means.”
