Its indeed a very helpful video. I confirm the face validity of all the points that you have shared. Here, I want to add few more suggestions for my fellow PhD students from Pakistan, Bangladesh, and India, who are doing PhD in home country. 1. Try to deal with supervisor's review, commentary, sarcasm, other academic problems on campus. Once you get back to your home or workplace switch off the mind button that deals with your research work, and supervisor. 2. For following point 1, you have to find substantial time that you can spend on campus, laboratory, library, or any other comfortable place, where you can sit and concentrate on your research work (that also includes emotional, and academic dealing with constructive, and destructive criticism from supervisor). 3. Before entering into a dialogue, even if you have logical supportive arguments, you have to gauge first, whether your supervisor will appreciate it or take it personal. 4. If the supervisor is a person who has a history of autocracy/narcissism, please refrain yourself to indulge in any kind of dialogue with him/her. Look for an alternative option. If unfortunately, you do not have any other option, drink a glass of water, go for a healthy physical activity (game, walk, jogging, etc) for 20-40 minutes after a bad episode with your supervisor. After that get back to your work, because its your PhD and you have to complete it by hook or by crook, stop crying. My 2 cents. Anyone can agree or disagree.
