Impulse-Control Disorders

Impulse-Control Disorders (ICDs) are characterized by the inability to resist harmful urges or impulses, often resulting in destructive behaviors. Examples include kleptomania (compulsive stealing), pyromania (fire setting), and intermittent explosive disorder (sudden aggression).

Treatment usually involves cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and sometimes medication to help individuals manage urges and develop self-control strategies. Early intervention can significantly improve behavioral regulation and quality of life.
