Has anyone had a moody child who grew out of it?

Just that really.
My son is 5 and his mood swings have been really intense recently. He's always been quite emotionally but he definitely expresses himself through anger as opposed to tears.
It's been a really rubbish week, 2 incitement's of him being really moody amongst little outbursts too. When he's happy he's wonderful but if he doesn't get his own way his moods shot.
I've spoke to school and the school nurse and they have said he's great at school and the behaviour is not considered a concern at this point. They encouraged a gentle parenting approach teamed with ignored the behaviour. So I'm doing this.
I just worry so much about his moods though. I worry about him not making friends and how he's going to grow up.
I'm doing everything I can. Is it likely he could grow out of this? Has anyone else been there?

Just need some encouragement!
