Whether it’s an older child with frequent tantrums, or an adult who easily loses their temper, I think of angry outbursts as a symptom with underlying root causes. While there may be triggers, someone’s inability to regulate their emotions, in my experience, suggests a biochemical and/or inflammatory driver. In this episode, I’ll discuss:
An important difference between angry outbursts and other symptoms.
The impact on the neuro-physiology of others.
Reasons this behavior may be enabled by others.
Associated diagnoses.
The four most common underlying physiologic factors that I see in my practice that appear to drive angry outburst.
What the presence or absence of remorse after a tantrum can tell us about underlying physiologic drivers.
