I used to sleep as my coping mechanism, but if you sleep too much it's not a good thing to do. So I keep carry out my responsibilities, but I have to know the limits, how long I can handle it. If I think I can't handle it anymore, I might as well do something else like doing my hobbies or you can talk about the problems you are facing with people you trust. I'm sure you can do it. You just need someone who can courage you more. But don't forget you have to fill your needs, like sleep or eat something.
