Miserable where I live

I’m miserable where I currently live. It’s awful and doesn’t allow my family to live the lives we want to live. It’s suffocating and I feel like we’re missing out on so much life when we don’t even know how much time we have left to live. My daughter is already four. Unfortunately we can’t realistically go anywhere else for probably a couple of years. Has anyone else been in this situation before? How did you survive and make life enjoyable while you waited to move?
