Interested in learning coping mechanisms

[Make it work]

Hello,

New to the site, just getting started. Really need advise on coping mechanisms when the world is going sideways.

Thank you,

[PLEASE - NO RUN MESSAGES]

PLEASE - NO RUN MESSAGES This is a high level discussion board for solving ongoing, day-to-day relationship conflicts. Members may appear frustrated but they are here for constructive solutions to problems. This is not a place for relationship "stay" or "leave" discussions. Please read the specific guidelines for this group.

Welcome,
There are plenty of resources here.  Have you tried looking through the Lessons section?  If you look on the right there will be a news feed of useful articles and lessons.  There are also links under the Tools tab at the top of the page with good info.

But I'll help you out and point you in the right direction.

A lot of stuff in here for those trying to make it work:

But these two links go to direct parts of that topic that might be useful for you in reference to your question.

Hi Make it Work and let me join WileyCoyote in welcoming you! (great screen name btw)

In addition to checking out the resources WileyCoyote shared, a great way to learn is to post on other members' threads to get insights from their related experiences.

To get started, it would be great to hear more about what brought you to the site. May I ask who the person whose behavior you are trying to cope with is and more about your situation?

All the best,
~ROE
