AB Disruptive  mood  dysregulation  disorder  (DMDD)  is  one  of  the  new  categories  in  DSM-5  and  is  classified  under  the  section  of  Depressive  Disorders.  This  disorder  is  characterized  by  persistent  irritable  mood,  and  severe  (i.e.,  out  of  proportion  in  intensity  or  duration)  and  frequent  (i.e.,  three  or  more  times  per  week)  temper  outbursts.  These  features  should  have  been  present  for  at  least  1  year  and  began  before  age  10,  although  the  diagnosis  should  not  be  made  before  age  6  or  after  age  18.
