Episodic dyscontrol syndrome

Episodic dyscontrol syndrome (EDS, or sometimes just dyscontrol), is a pattern of abnormal, episodic, and frequently violent and uncontrollable social behavior in the absence of significant provocation; it can result from limbic system diseases, disorders of the temporal lobe, or abuse of alcohol or other psychoactive substances.

EDS may affect children or adults.

Treatment for EDS usually involves treating the underlying causative factor(s). This may involve psychotherapy, substance abuse treatment, or medical treatment for diseases.

EDS has been successfully controlled in clinical trials using prescribed medications, including Carbamazepine,Ethosuximide, and Propranolol.

A diagnosis of EDS has been used as a defense in court for persons accused of committing violent crimes including murder.
