Don't Treat Me With Kid's Gloves But Do Choose Your Words Wisely

Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves- Gandhi

The title can actually be applied in any circumstance, to anybody. It's a great mantra to live by. It's also a mantra my therapist seems to have either forgotten, misplaced, or never learned.  On one of my visits to him a couple of months ago (about my third or so visit with him), I was at my lowest. I was visibly shaken, so upset I could not even drive myself to the appointment. He could tell from the start that I was in emotional pain and extremely upset. (This was before placing me on Lithium to try and balance my mood somewhat.)
