Description

What really goes on inside your brain when you overthink, feel anxious, or just forget your OTP?
 This week on Cyrus SaysDr. Sid Warrier, neurologist and YouTuber, joins Cyrus Broacha for a laugh-out-loud yet insightful chat about how the brain shapes our thoughts, stress, memory, and emotions.
They dive into:
  Why Indians are wired to stress about money and comparison
  How anxiety is rooted in your brain’s chemical network
  Dr Sid’s journey from JJ Hospital to Lucknow to almost moving to the UK before COVID changed everything
  The rise of mental health awareness through neuroscience
  Comedy, racism, caste and the absurdities of everyday Indian life
It’s a mix of science, stand-up, and self-reflection — where Cyrus tries to understand his own brain… and Sid tries not to lose his.
 Watch for a perfect blend of brains, banter, and Broacha.
