I have minimal outside contact with my therapist. Aside from scheduling matters... I think we've had one phone call in 2 years that he initiated after I texted him that I was having a breakdown and unable to get out of my car to go to work. I have emailed him in the past, maybe 20 emails total in 2 years, and he usually responds within a day or two. Here and there I will text him and he will reply back. We might exchange between 0 - 5 short texts a week, and there have been times I texted and didn't get a reply back... including once when I sent 4 texts all without replies before giving up. Oddly, the un-replied to texts were when I was seeking support, most of my texts are not about my issues. We've never discussed the boundary specifically I think because I've never brought up anger about the un-replied to texts or emails, maybe if I brought that up I would get some kind of explanation. Whatever the boundary I don't think I've crossed it. I'm really afraid of being annoying to him so for the most part I bite my tongue and don't contact him.
