ICD-Code F60.30: Emotionally unstable personality disorder: Aggressive
You have a personality disorder that is characterized by a difficulty controlling your emotions.
Everyone has personal characteristics that are deeply rooted. The personality involves certain patterns: how one things, feels and behaves. With a personality disorder, these patterns differ greatly from the majority of the population. This can be very stressful and lead to difficulties in daily life. It may also cause problems at work or in social relationships.
When emotions are strong and difficult to control, moods may shift rapidly. People with this disorder are usually easily irritated or angered. You may sometimes act spontaneously without giving sufficient regard to the potential consequences of your actions for other people. This can lead to arguments and conflict with other people.
