What does "adjustment disorder with disturbance of conduct" mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Poor behavior: An adjustment disorder is an attempt to deal with a stressful situation. The person suffering this disorder finds a maladaptive way to cope. When a conduct disorder is the primary symptom it means the person is venting his emotional adjustment into disruptive behavior.
