Thanks, Phillipa. I appreciate knowing that. I hadn't seen any posts by him about ACT.
I've tried several times over the last couple years to see if anybody here was interested in it.
> I believe ACT is realizing you have a problem and accepting it instead of fighting it.
I would say ACT is accepting your uncontrollable *responses* to a problem — accepting your thoughts & feelings. You can/should still work on a problem, the ACT people say, if fixing it helps you move toward personally-chosen values.
