What is Dysregulation?  According to the Cleveland Clinic, "emotional dysregulation is a mental health symptom that involves trouble controlling your emotions and how you act on those feelings. To those around you, your emotions and reactions will seem out of proportion compared to what you're reacting to… You can think about emotional regulation like volume control for your feelings. When you use the volume control for a device, you can keep it from being too loud. With emotional dysregulation, your brain can't regulate emotion signals. In effect, your volume control doesn't work like it should, making your emotions "louder" and harder to manage." Cleveland Clinic, Emotional Dysregulation. Last reviewed.
