Unprofessionalism

In the beginning Melanie was very polite and helpful. Then the further along with my case she would use very vulgar language. At our last meeting she lashed out at me verbally telling me that if i could have a boyfriend or get on a social media site, then I was NOT disabled. She proceeded to talk to ...me like I was nothing, cussing and being rude. I was in tears and very upset and she knew I had issues with mental illnesses. I got tired of being talked to like that and took up for myself. She mailed me a letter a week later, resigning from my case. I was going to get rid of her anyway. Very unprofessional way to handle things.
