Brief Answer:
Oppositional conversational style

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.

I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.

The psychologic term for such a phenomenon is oppositional conversational style and believe me such people are very common and seriously difficult to handle. Indept psychodynamic psyhotherapy may bring out some conflict of the childhood mostly between the ages of 2-5 years. This gets the person fixed to the stage 2 of personality development.

Hope I am able to answer your concerns.

If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.

If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for me, so that I get a good feedback.
