Not all breaks are healing. Some are just a way to avoid what’s really going on inside.


In this powerful and honest episode of OurSpace, we explore the fine line between coping and escaping. Why do we turn to our phones, food, or sleep when things get tough? And more importantly — how can we shift to habits that actually help us heal?


Join Ridhima, Tanisha, and Namra as they dive into:

The psychology of coping mechanisms

Signs you’re escaping instead of processing

Practical tools to cope better — even on your worst days

Real-life stories, reflections, and small steps toward resilience


Whether you’re in a funk, feeling overwhelmed, or just curious about your patterns — this episode is your reminder that healing doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be honest.


OurSpace is your safe and open corner of the internet — for every soul, every struggle, and every journey.


Press play. Pause the escape. Start coping, for real.
