Emotion Dysregulation
Emotion dysregulation refers to difficulties in managing and responding to emotional experiences. Individuals with this condition may struggle to control their emotional reactions, leading to intense feelings that can be overwhelming or inappropriate for the situation. This can result in problems in relationships, work, and daily functioning.
Common causes of emotion dysregulation include factors such as childhood trauma, mental health disorders, and stressful life events. Treatment options often involve therapies like dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) or cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which aim to help individuals develop healthier emotional responses and coping strategies.
