IED and "another medical disorder"

Postby Aleksey » Fri Oct 16, 2015 4:04 am

In Wikipedia, Criterion F:

"The recurrent outbursts cannot be explained by another mental disorder and are not the result of another medical disorder or substance use"

For example, something very similar to IED happens and also there seemingly is "another medical disorder" that perhaps affects the work of the brain and switches it into the mode in which these IED events happen.
Can this situation be diagnosed like IED?

I didn't understand your question but "due to another medical disorder" means that it is not better explained by another medical condition like, the agressive behavior seen sometimes in bipolar disorder or in another medical condition affecting the brain.
