I guess it isn't. Driving around aimlessly with no destination in mind all alone is kinda sad though.

True, though at the same time, it could be fun and relaxing

Literally all of them except for the driving related ones. Good thing that I decided to never learn how to, I'm prone to making bad decisions, driving and drugs would've been one of them.

Is road rage a cope?
I have it, I do it, but not to cope.
I do it because people are morons.

Masturbation (not excessive) and hitting things. Otherwise I just kill time in various boring ways. Killing time might be good practice for working myself up to killing myself, this has been true in my experience. Once you've wasted enough time that noose looks appealing.

Does maladaptive daydreaming not count as a bad coping method? I have no bad coping methods then. All fresh and healthy here.

I mean, there's that too, but rage honestly makes me feel alive.

Yeah, that's escapism. Definitely counts.

My reckless behaviour when rollerblading drunk and high. Heck better than drinking and driving. Chain smoking, on the road with music as loud as an ambulance.
