Response
"the inability, or more properly the failure, of an individual to respond" The middle section of this sounds like it's POV. I'm not well-versed on this particular subject, so I'm not going to change it, but I think this should be more thoroughly explained (and sourced) or deleted. — Icarus 00:22, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

How about using this as a lead sentence for the article: "Emotional dysregulation is a term used when an individual does not respond to a person, place, thing, or event in a manner that would generally be considered within the normal range of emotions"? Would that be sufficiently NPOV?

However, I am not a mental health professional, so I'm not going to change the lead sentence for the time being, either. — Diamantina 20:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)


 * As a mental health professional, I think it is fine as it is. RalphLender 21:37, 27 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I've added some material to more fully define the term DPeterson 19:34, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Does anyone else think this page gets very repetitive, especially towards the end? Aroundthewayboy 03:31, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Link to CPTSD
Emot. dysreg is a core component of Complext PTSD and so I added material relevant to that linkage along with citations to support the statements DPeterson talk 00:01, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

DDP
I have removed Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy from this page. This little known therapy has been extensively advertised on Wiki as evidence based, sometimes the only evidence based treatment for a variety of disorders affecting attachment. (Theraplay, also little known and not evidence based has also been advertised in this way.) A range of attachment articles including attachment therapy are currently before ArbCom. In the course of ArbCom it has transpired that of the 6 users promoting DDP and Theraplay and controlling these pages, User:DPeterson, User:RalphLender, User:JonesRD, User:SamDavidson, User:JohnsonRon, and User:MarkWood, the latter four are definitely socks and have been blocked, and the other two have been blocked for one year. The attachment related pages are in the course of being rewritten.Fainites barley 20:45, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Update - all 5 are now indefinitely blocked as sockpuppets of DPeterson, and DPeterson has been banned for 1 year by ArbCom. Fainites barley 19:41, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Update 2 - User:AWeidman, AKA  Dr. Becker-Weidman  Talk and Dr Art has now also been indef. banned for breach of the ban on his sockpuppet DPeterson.Fainites barley 16:09, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

References need page numbers
It is not enough just to name a book or article. The reader must be able to check the source by going to the page number. --Mattisse 17:11, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Removed part that made it sound that use of defense mechanisms was inherently pathological
Defense mechanisms are used by normal people in a normal way all the time. It is their pathological use that is the problem. --Mattisse 17:17, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

Added two sentences referencing a clinical trial related to BPD and ED. Thought the article could benefit from a specific case. --Tay.wood12 30 March 2012 —Preceding undated comment added 04:00, 31 March 2012 (UTC).

Combining this with the emotional self-regulation (emotion regulation) article
I'm working on basically overhauling the emotional self-regulation (emotion regulation--this is the name I'm hoping to change it to) article, part of which will include adding sections about emotion regulation and mental health/psychopathology, i.e., emotion dysregulation. Consequently, I'm thinking that it won't make a lot of sense to have an article about emotion regulation and a separate article about emotion dysregulation. Moreover, one cannot speak about emotion regulation without speaking about emotion dysregulation, so I believe it should be a subsection of a broader emotion regulation article rather than a page unto itself. Once the sections I mentioned earlier are written and published in the emotion regulation article, I think this article should be nominated for deletion unless it becomes apparent that the emotion dysregulation topic is broad enough to warrant an article of its own.

 * Hi Slyons123! I agree with a nomination for deletion.  Lova Falk     talk   09:38, 3 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I think a merger and redirect would make more sense. --I dream of horses (T) @ 06:42, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Expanding on the Etymology section
I am thinking of adding information on the difference between "dys" and "dis" so that readers will understand why it is spelled "dysregulation" rather than "disregulation". How does that sound? This is my first time editing a Wikipedia article so I would love some guidance/tips! Serenafire (talk) 19:03, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Article: "Moreover, it has been observed that more female teens struggle with emotional dysregulation than males." Source: "Emotional dysregulation is more prevalent in female teens than their male peers."

No actual data to back this up. Montauk07 (talk) 04:49, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Possible manifestations of emotion dysregulation include ...
Most of those listed are overtly aggressive behaviours, but how about the other side, such as withdrawal, avoidance, passive-aggressive behaviour? 74.127.200.140 (talk) 13:03, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Factors/causes section
It's a pretty big and important article -- should have a link to some factors/causes. Likeanechointheforest (talk) 20:57, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
