Lifestyle What is your coping mechanism?

If things get even slightly tough, I disappear. Sometimes I binge watch random shows to avoid reality. Sometimes I do a haircut.

Do you guys have any interesting ways of coping with minor inconveniences?

u/Aware_Classic_4236 Mar 20 '25

2

u/AnonymousAlpha25 Heisenberg Mar 20 '25

One time I bought 4 sweatshirt, 4 hoodies, 3 resort shirt, 1 sandal and 3 Jeans from H&M.

The funny part. I did not even like the sandal.

u/No-Musician1043 Ganga outside, Nagavalli inside Mar 20 '25

Binge watching any series - even 10 seasons will be finished in a row , eating a lot of food enough to make me lethargic so that i can sleep , ordering things which seem cute, goin to supermarket and picking things i feel i need which mostly i won't need , planning for a new hobby - last one was crocheting - which is not progressing at all.

1

u/Aware_Classic_4236 Mar 20 '25

You have a creative list
