bouncing off another thread...

do you think there's an objective 'tmi' that a t can end up crossing? like is it purely subjective, that is, as long as it doesn't harm the relationship or interfere with therapy, then it's okay? how would you know if your t was telling you too much? at what point is there a boundary being pushed?

i have a very comfortable, long term relationship with my t and i've learned a lot about him over the years. i feel fine about it and he keeps therapy focused on me, but he also has no problem answering all my nosy questions. because i am a nosy person (also i have trust issues and i struggle to make connections because of my very nomadic childhood/early adulthood - so his opening up to me helps me trust easier). it works for me and has helped me make progress. but then other people would probably find my t's info tmi?

idk. thought i'd see what your thoughts and/or experiences have been.
