From my experience (and those on a bipolar discord server) coping mechanisms can definitely be taught. Most of them are rather simple in concept but almost all of them are absolutely exhausting to use. Trying to work full time while using coping mechanisms had me sitting in a chair, unable to function, after 5pm. I serious started to ask myself if living was worth living if that was all there was to it.
