If you watching this video, you likely are experiencing relationship problems with your PhD supervisor or thesis advisor.
You might be feeling that you are trapped in this relationship because you have very little power. you also might be feeling like you're the only person that's experienced problems like this. This is untrue - you have power and others have experienced poor relationships in academia. This is why there is a chain of command in the university.
There are many things that might be happening with the PhD supervisor:
Stress in family life.
Stress due to tenure constraints.
Stress from social comparison.
Keep in mind that you are also stressed during the process:
You are uncertain about your job prospects.
You really don’t know what the expectations at the job.
This is your first-time dealing with research.
What can you do when your PhD supervisor is not treating you nicely?
Have a discussion with this person about how you feel. You need to voice your issues in an upfront manner. If you don't voice your complaints, nothing is going to change. However, it is important that you address the issue in an appropriate way.
At that point, I would also start keeping notes of their behavior, and how you feel.
I would also have several discussions with people that you are close too, and see how they would interpret the situation.
If this does not change the supervisor behavior, then you probably should speak to either the department chair or a senior professor who you believe would be a confidant. Be open to how you feel during the process.
If this all fails, you can speak to the Dean or even the Ombudperson at the University.

David Maslach is a research professor of entrepreneurship, innovation, and business strategy, I discuss topics, such as behavioral science, strategy, innovation, and entrepreneurship, and apply these to my new peer proofreading and editing platform. Topics include the sharing economy, altruism, investing in technology, starting a business, and bounded rationality. My favorite videos pertain to incentives, goal setting, and learning from failure to drive behaviors such as weight loss, stopping telemarketers, creating novel technologies, and creating new movements.
https://r3ciprocity.com: Peer proofreading and editing platform
A new platform where you can earn credits by editing other people's documents. Use these credits to have your own work edited. If you do a good enough job, you can convert these credits to money.
The goal of the platform is to get people to 'pay it forward' and help other people out by creating incentives for people to give back.
