Learning to control impulsivity does not come naturally, says Philippa Perry. The key is in developing the right skill sets

40s. I have a career and I own my flat, but I’m continually unhappy. I’ve been taking all sorts of antidepressantstherapists, doctors, psychiatrists and have attended anger management and mindfulness courses, retreats, yoga. Nothing works. My brain scans are normal.
