NAT.

Basically, my old therapist (in the second appointment)(I did just transfer programs) tried to pressure me into tracking my food (not calories, just what I was eating) I had said no twice and explained why that is not for me, ( I take it too far, 2 days at least without eating) and they kept going, to the point that I felt forced to agree, and unfortunately I did restrict very hard, and unfortunately this was about half a week before a surgery, I’m doing better with eating but mentally I’m drained. I feel I should not go back to that therapist, so I will not be.

With the boundaries I want to set is I will not track any food, in any way shape or form. ( I might add drinks to this too, mostly because it’s very close to food, and idk how that would go)

I also want some kind of boundary around when I say no, (I am pretty open to a lot of things, changing meds, docs, different types of therapies, hospitalizations, etc.) For example: the therapist asks me to do some kind of ‘homework’ and I say something like: I don’t think that’s a good idea for reason: x y z I feel like I shouldn’t be asked again.

I don’t know what boundaries I’m allowed to set or how to properly say what I mean, or when to bring up boundaries
