How do you deal with waiting

My LO is in for a probation violation until next summer. He’s doing his programs and signed up for work training. We’re putting in paperwork to be married and plan on doing an interstate compact when he gets out. We were engaged before he went in… So we’re always trying to move forward, which is good. But…

How do yall deal with the sadness? The anxiety? I get that some days are better than others, but it feels really heavy and uncertain for me, which I hate. How do you deal? Do you just solider through?
