To you, that angry, horn-blasting tailgater is suffering from road rage. But doctors have another name for it — intermittent explosive disorder — and a new study suggests it is far more common than they realized, affecting up to 16 million Americans.

“People think it’s bad behavior and that you just need an attitude adjustment, but what they don’t know ... is that there’s a biology and cognitive science to this,” said Dr. Emil Coccaro, chairman of psychiatry at the University of Chicago’s medical school.
See all the insanity around here has a reason. It's biology and not us just being dumb asses.

I just had an intermittent explosion in the can. It wasn't my fault though. Excuse me for a minute...

I think there's really only one pill for all these disorders, they just give it a bunch of names and charge more for the fancier named ones.
