Destroying someone's self-confidence can be done through various means, including constant criticism, belittling their achievements, comparing them unfavorably to others, gaslighting, emotional manipulation, and undermining their abilities or worth.

As for why someone would destroy your self-confidence and then try to help rebuild it, it could stem from a variety of reasons such as control, manipulation, guilt, or a desire to appear helpful or caring. It's possible that the person may feel threatened by your growing self-confidence or may be attempting to maintain power and control over you by creating a cycle of dependency where they appear as the savior or source of support. It's important to be cautious of such behavior and to prioritize your own well-being and independence.
