coping mechanisms among Senior High Students of Notre Dame

of Salaman College. Over a period of time, coping

mechanisms is their technique to adapt and fight on life

while their parents are away from them. Numerous students

have stated the alarming number of students are not able to

cope due to problems, conflicts in life, stress in school

works, and especially because their parents are not with

them leading them to depression, anxiety and suicide. In

order to overcome such issues, the parents should find a

way to maintain the strenght of their children and as well

as the students, they should learn how to use the coping

mechanisms about their role in life in going their way

through the end. Thus, to save youth from such vulnerable

behaviors, they should be directed toward creative and

constructive abilities and activities to enhance their

capabilities, interests, aptitudes, encourage them to

achieved their goals and to grow more their coping

mechanisms.
Introduction:

Coping means to invest one's own conscious effort, to

solve personal and interpersonal problems, in order to try

to master, minimize or tolerate stress and conflict. The

psychological coping mechanisms are commonly termed coping

strategies or coping skills. The term coping generally

refers to adaptive (constructive) coping strategies. That

is strategies which reduce stress. In contrast, other

coping strategies may be coined as maladaptive, if they

increase stress. Maladaptive coping is therefore also

described, when looking at the outcome, as non-coping.

Furthermore, the term coping generally refers to reactive

coping, i.e. the coping response which follows

the stressor. This differs from proactive coping, in which

a coping response aims to neutralize a future stressor.

Subconscious or non-conscious strategies (e.g. defense

mechanisms) are generally excluded from the area of coping.

The effectiveness of the coping effort depends on the type

of stress, the individual, and the circumstances. Coping

responses are partly controlled by personality (habitual

traits), but also partly by the social environment,

particularly the nature of the stressful environment.

Being away from our parents because they are abroad

doesn’t mean that we cannnot complete our life, but instead

there is this coping mechanisms that can make us ready and

prepared for the incoming struggles and battles in our

life. It makes us prepared as we grow old and with this


factors, we can really know the real meaning of what it’s

like to live as a person here in the world we stand on. We

need to adapt because it is a way for to grow and be

matured as a person even though our parents are not here

beside us. We can cope by adapting, going with the flow,

enjoying our life, and learning to fight on our own because

Coping is our weapon to solve the things that blocks our

life into the path of success.
