To contend or strive, especially on even terms or with success.
"coping with child-rearing and a full-time job."
To contend with difficulties and act to overcome them.
To form a cope or arch; to bend or arch; to bow.
As a foreigner it’s really jarring seeing this verb adopting a new meaning of “failing to cope”. I’ve seen it many times, it’s definitely not you and not new, but it does make the English language just a tad more inaccessible.
