Additional Information: I genuinely believe that I must practise what I preach. Yes, I know ACT is not a religion; nonetheless, it is a lifelong practice! So, whatever I ask you to do or practise, know that I am also doing it myself. It has helped my own ADHD brain focus on what is important (to me) while living my best life, no matter how painful it may be at times (see Reversal of Desire by Phil Stutz). Yes, life might be uncomfortable, it is also worthwhile! Instead of avoiding suffering, I can help you see your pain it for what it is: no more, no less. And then you can choose what you want to do with it.
