Anger syndrome 'under-diagnosed'
IED may be more common than previously thought

A condition which makes people lash out violently for no reason is
vastly under-diagnosed, say US researchers. As many as 16 million
Americans have been affected by intermittent explosive disorder (IED)
in which the sufferer displays unwarranted violent outbursts. A study
in Archives of General Psychiatry showed 4% of the US population had
severe IED with three or more outbursts in the past year.  An expert
said cultural differences in the UK could mean its rate was lower.
