my bf wants me to go back to therapy
please keep in mind this does not mean I'm cured in no way can I ever be cured
I was in therapy for 10 years and I feel like I was at a good enough place to stop going and finally
Cut to months later in not doing too hot, having manic episodes, and very recently wasting 2000 dollars that ill never get back
See for me that's a learning experience and while yes I am VERY upset about that My boyfriend sees it more that I can't control my decision-making without some sort of guidance
Which isn't how therapy works at all, therapists are trained not to make decisions for you
And I really feel as If he's crossing some major boundaries by telling me to go back

From your boyfriend's perspective, it's understandable that he wants to support you and help you navigate this difficult time. However, it's important to set boundaries and communicate your needs clearly. If you feel like he's crossing a line by pressuring you to go back to therapy, let him know how you feel and explain your perspective on the situation. Ultimately, the decision to seek therapy or any other form of treatment is yours to make, and it's important to feel empowered and in control of that decision. That being said, it might be worth considering whether or not going back to therapy could be helpful for you right now. Remember that they do have professional tools to help you manage your symptoms and improve your overall mental health.
