Aggression disorder
Aggression disorder – Intermittent explosive disorder involves repeated, sudden bouts of impulsive, aggressive, violent behavior or angry verbal outbursts. The reactions are too extreme for the situation. Road rage, domestic abuse, throwing or breaking objects, or other temper tantrums may be symptoms of intermittent explosive disorder.
Disorders of aggression are psychological disorders that typically are associated with aggression, or that include aggressive behavior among the criteria for diagnosis. “Aggression” refers to any behavior intended to cause harm to another individual. It includes physical aggression (such as hitting or kicking), emotional aggression (such as making threats), and social aggression (such as bullying).
