Thank you for the feedback, very usefull to remember that ACT therapy is not for everyone.
While ACT has been helpful for many people with ADHD, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. As
mentioned below, in the comments, individuals with PTSD or autism may find some aspects of ACT challenging if the therapy isn’t adapted to their needs.
For PTSD:
The focus on accepting distressing thoughts and emotions might feel overwhelming without proper trauma-sensitive adjustments. A skilled therapist can modify ACT to ensure it’s safe and supportive.
For Autism:
Some autistic individuals may find ACT’s abstract concepts difficult to engage with or feel that it doesn’t fully address sensory and emotional regulation needs. Adaptations may be necessary for effectiveness.
If you’re considering ACT, working with a therapist who understands your unique needs is key. Therapy should feel empowering, not harmful!
I’m going to stop you right here. ACT is not helpful for everyone - and if you have comorbidities like autism or ptsd - RUN VERY FAR AWAY FROM IT. They will set you further back and potentially harm.
