Emotional dysregulation is a term used within the mental health community referring to an emotional response that is poorly modulated, and does not fall within the conventionally accepted range of emotive response. [1] The response set is not necessarily negative, and is sometimes seen within the positive range of emotions. Common examples of emotional dysregulation might include disproportionate rage over something small, like a broken plate, or hysterical tears over a missed appointment.
Emotional dysregulation is typically associated with an experience of early psychological trauma, or chronic maltreatment (such as child abuse, child neglect, or institutional neglect/abuse). It is most commonly associated with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Complex post-traumatic stress, and Intermittent Explosive Disorder.[2][3]
