This is one I have struggled with, My old T and very first T was obsessed with boundries, she would always encourage me to ring her but then when I did, twic in the whole year and a half she would let rip about crossing her boundaries, she text me once after a session and asked how I was, this was very early on. So i text back and I didn't abuse this at all. i only ever text to change appts, or to say thanks after bad sessions-she would relply sometimes and others not reply. I once asked her, if she could ring my doctors for me as I had just changed doctors and was feeling very down and Sui, she did this and then in next session she said, this is not what therapy is, and tat it doesn't include texting- we are not friends. I said I understood, which I did but then she text me again to ask how I was , so I was getting mixed messages all the time. Then when She text and I didn't reply she would send same text again and again until I answered. I wasn't playing games just was trying to clear my head from all the therapy, so for me I am very confused by this whole topic and with my new T, I am terrified of crossing her boundries and will not ring, text or email her...even though she did say at the last sesssion to ring next day but I didn't because I am so scared after my last T.
