Hello chris211: I'm not aware that inability to control one's temper is necessarily a personality disorder in-&-of itself. It may be one aspect of some personality disorders I suppose. But I'm not a psychologist. So I could well be mistaken. Perhaps other members here on PC may have more information to share with regard to this.

I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit.

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. There are many knowledgeable & caring members here. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!
