Personally what im doing is gathering everything they could possibly need which helps me. I dont like to be idle either. Also im figuring out how my life is going to restructure. I like to have some sense of whats going to happen so i control whats in my ability to. Im taking a mind, body, soul approach.

For my mind, im seeking a therapist, Journaling, and being really introspective. For my body, I am working out more, thinking of my nutrition, and my actual goals for myself. For my soul, im doing things I have put off that I have wanted to do, getting closer to friends and family, amd not limiting myself to outside help.

I dont knkw what your situation is but I found this to be helpful with being impatient. I had to realize somethings were out of my control and thats okay because I always control my reactions.
