Coping
Coping is cognitive and behavioral ways of dealing with the stress, strain, or demands of a situation.
Definition
Coping strategies may be problem-focused, emotion-focused, meaning-focused, avoidance-focused, or support-seeking. There is no one strategy that is always good - effectiveness depends on the situation, resources and whether the problem can be changed. Mature coping involves flexible strategy selection, not pretending stress doesn't exist.
