Of course, not all of those activities are inherently bad. You can certainly read, shop, work, or do anything for healthy reasons, just as you can compulsively turn to them to avoid feelings. You will need to discern when you are choosing to do something because the feelings you are experiencing are too uncomfortable to address. As you work on becoming the person God calls you to be, you may recognize the need to stop certain coping behaviors. This is a matter of emotional and spiritual growth.

Points to Ponder

► Make a list of your own coping strategies.

► Decide if you would like to change or eliminate any of your coping behaviors.

► Would you be willing to admit to someone your need to change?

► Would you be willing to ask someone to help you with that?
