no, he was not hostile, he was condescending, it was like "sweetie (not he did not call me sweetie but it was like that) but you understand that Z does not..."

not that condescending is much better than hostile

I pity his patients who have to hear this crap. He is otherwise very empathetic, he helped a lot when I was depressed, he asked how I was feeling from the bottom of his heart, or at least I heard it this way, and I thought that his patients were lucky, but not on the point of weight gain/loss, no. I have only one desire vis-a-vis him: force-feed him Zyprexa . With Depakote as an accompaniment. And by the by, I shared with him my observations which I made sitting and waiting in my county's psych clinic: the staff, from doctors to secretaries, are significantly slimmer than the waiting patients. e.g. one of our front desk workers is really shapely despite being not so young, she is really nice to look at. He again rumbled something in place of a good response.
