What Is Intermittent Explosive Disorder?

Intermittent Explosive Disorder is a mental health condition marked by repeated episodes of impulsive aggression, outbursts, or destructive behavior. These reactions are often much stronger than needed. This leaves the person and those around them feeling shaken and hurt.

Common Signs of Intermittent Explosive Disorder:

Sudden bursts of anger, often over small frustrations
Physical aggression, such as punching walls or breaking objects
Verbal outbursts, like screaming or threatening others
Feeling regret or embarrassment after an outburst
Difficulty controlling emotions when feeling irritated

These episodes are often followed by deep shame, sadness, or confusion. Many people with Intermittent Explosive Disorder do not know why they react so strongly. Treatment can help.

Why Does This Happen?

Intermittent Explosive Disorder is not simply a result of lacking willpower or self-control. Researchers suggest that it may be linked to a mix of brain chemistry, past trauma, and learned behaviors. Some individuals grow up in homes where family members frequently express anger and aggression. Others may have a brain imbalance that actively hinders their ability to control their emotions.

Understanding the cause of your explosive anger can be a powerful step toward healing. At Milton Recovery Centers, we don’t just treat the symptoms. We help you find the emotional triggers and create tools for lasting change.
