No. I haven't needed to. Except one or two, one who traumatized me, and in that case I should have said told the person I don't want to answer those questions and I don't like how I'm being treated and that I'm really hurting and that it should stop. But I thought the T knows better and I kept silent till I got traumatized.
But other ones have been respectful and if anything, they been the ones who taught me I actually have boundaries and that it's okay to have them and that in fact I need them. I used to think of boundaries as things only mean and aggressive people had. Or people who were lonely and distant and hated others. I never thought I could be seen as a good person and have boundaries. To say no and be seen as good and caring. I owe it to my therapists for helping me see that.
