all deterministic theories are inadequate, because there are simply not enough cycles in the universe to calculate the chaos in the universe, except for the final result of the universe's computation determinism's got incompleteness problems

cope... about freedom to not be determined? that your future isn't completely informed by your history? that's literally the opposite of cope, that's how you change

Not really. Hard to tell since I just didn't have any opportunities until after I gave up completely on life. No basis for comparison. When I believed in my own freedom I was locked out of all practical life pathways.
