I know the feeling and when I read it I had the same response. But I know that fighting fire with fire most of the time wont get your message through and I had to pull back. Your style basically read like: the way you're feeling is wrong and its stupid and dont feel how you're feeling because x, y, z. When it gets to that point I feel it doesn't even matter if you're right, going at him like that is more likely going to cause him to push back or retreat into his negative feelings and that's not what we want to do since it wont help him.
