These disorders involve significant difficulty controlling aggressive actions, impulses, and emotions, leading to behaviors that harm others and violate social norms. These conditions, classified as Disruptive, Impulse-Control, and Conduct Disorders (DICC), include conditions like Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and Conduct Disorder (CD). Common symptoms are angry outbursts, arguing, property destruction, lying, and theft. Treatment often involves cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and, for children, holistic approaches like Multisystemic Therapy (MST).
