Which of the following is not considered a negative way to cope with stress?
a. seeking support
b. smoking and using substances
c. over- or undereating
d. lashing out at others

A non-negative way to cope with stress is option A: seeking support. By seeking support one is not using a substance such as drugs or alcohol as a "crutch", these crutches will only mask the problem temporarily, not fix it. Over or under eating would result in the same; a temporary mask to the problem. Lashing out at others only pushes people away and adds to the stress. Reach out to a trusted friend, family member, or professional, and let them help guide you.

Air goes past the epiglottis and into the trachea when you breathe in. from there, it goes to your vocal cords in the larynx until it reaches the bronchi. from the bronchi, air passes into each lung.
