Not all coping skills are created equal. Some help us heal, while others simply help us survive one more day. In this episode of Cycle Breakers Anonymous, we dive into the coping mechanisms we developed growing up, and how those habits have shaped our lives. We share some personal stories, practical coping strategies, and a few unconventional techniques that have helped us along the way. Whether you're looking for new tools or simply want to understand why you cope the way you do, this conversation is a reminder that healing isn't about never struggling, but instead about learning healthier ways to navigate life's hardest moments.
