Demolishing self-confidence through criticism disguised as advice is a common tactic in narcissistic abuse. It often leaves the victim doubting their own worth and abilities, as the “advice” is actually a veiled way to undermine and control. Recognizing this pattern is crucial: genuine advice supports growth, while disguised criticism erodes your sense of self. 🌱 Stay aware, trust yourself, and seek out feedback that builds you up instead of tearing you down. #NarcissisticAbuse #SelfConfidence #MentalHealth
