Not All Coping Mechanisms Are Healthy
and that‘s okay.
I‘m serious. Developing an alcohol addiction is a negative coping mechanism. Believing you are a fictional character, creature, or other real person (copelinking, a otherkin term) is a negative coping mechanism when it’s gone too far. Physically hurting yourself is a negative coping mechanism. By no means are we wanting them to hurt themselves to feel better. We don’t want to see them hurt.
Insulting, shaming, mocking and overly criticizing people however does more harm to those people than good.
It can be triggering to be around that person who drinks a lot. It can be triggering to see people writing stories about suicide. It can be triggering to see people drawing characters suffering from eating disorders.
And that is okay, too. It doesn’t bring you comfort, no one should shame, insult, mock, or criticize you either for something only hurting you more.
You cannot judge coping mechanisms by how they help you or not. Some coping mechanisms, like self harm, are later controlled by therapists. With self harm, a lot of therapists recommend snapping a rubber band against the skin when the person sufferers from thoughts of self harm. It is still a negative coping mechanism, but there is a reason that people cope the way that they do. Stop placing judgement when you don’t know those people.
