What's the difference between Disorder and Syndrome?
gpt
A condition is a state if being (which is nether inherently good or bad).
A disorder is a condition in which a process (or processes) is going wrong (ie. dis-ordered).
A syndrome is a group of symptoms which consistently occur together, or a condition characterised by a set of associated symptoms.
The term syndrome is usually used for a constellation of symptoms with no known underlying cause, but there aresome exceptions, for example Down's syndrome. The terms disorder and syndrome are generally used interchangeably in general parlance.
