A It varies by individual, but with combined herbal medicine and acupuncture, the frequency and intensity of impulsive anger often decrease after 4 to 8 weeks.

The speed of recovery from anger control disorder depends on the severity and duration of symptoms, comorbid conditions, and the living environment. Generally, Korean medicine treatment shows the following course. Weeks 1-2: Sleep and physical tension begin to improve. Week 4: A felt reduction in the frequency of angry outbursts. Weeks 8-12: A raised threshold for impulsive reactions and improved self-observation. 6 months to 1 year: Constitutional improvement and establishment of lifestyle habits to prevent relapse.
