I think it's fine to draw boundaries. My parents were the same way about my therapy and the psych drugs, but especially the therapy. I finally drew boundaries and they no longer discuss those things with me. Mind you, I didn't like the way I did it, which was by overdisclosing, but I did it and I'm not sorry. I think it's great that you were able to draw boundaries.
The down side is that you no longer can use them as a source of support about the matters you draw boundaries on. :( In my case, it wasn't much of a loss.
