Talk:Intermittent explosive disorder

message: I am presently unable to edit this article, but I believe the "famous people who have it" section should be changed to "in popular culture," since it only includes WWE wrestler Randy Orton at this time.  To my knowledge, Randy Orton has never claimed that he has IED in real life, nor did he really attack Vince McMahon.  This was all kayfabe and I believe this should be made clear.

replies: text: Regardless of whether or not he ACTUALLY has it, I'd think that his mention of the illness is likely the most mainstream media attention this has gotten in a long while, and THAT deserves a reference. Perhaps "IED in Media" ? 24.128.53.252 (talk) 02:38, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Oh, you stupid children... arguing about a made up disease and how it affects made up characters in a fake television program... I lol'd a bit, and then decided to call you out on your stupidity.  People (all people) get pissed off every once in a while.  Some people get more pissed off than they should.  A few people get so pissed off as to apear to have a mental problem - What do you mean we're out of butter?! I'll f-ing kill you you b-tch!!  Yeah, that guy needs to up his dose... anyways, I digress... any examples taken from the World Wildlife Federation, or WWE as it is called now are absolutely absurd.  Morons.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.167.168.116 (talk) 16:35, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

message: The mention that some victims have amnesia of the events during the episode suggests that this is a dissociative mental break. 
Culture Bound Syndromes have similar symptoms as Amok- Malaysia, and Going Postal- The United States.
VisionAndPsychosis.Net a private psychology project points out that a little known problem of physiology, a "conflict of physiology," allows exposure to visual Subliminal Distraction and accounts for these episodes.

The problem was discovered in the 1960's when it caused mental breaks for knowledge workers using the first prototypes of close-spaced office workstations. Those same circumstances can be created in primitive areas around the world when people live in small single-room traditional or ethnic housing. There have been fist fights over chess games on Russian space missions. There was a mental break on Soyuz21/Salut5. The space capsule was the single-room living and working space.
