Do you drive your rig? If not, it might help if you learn to drive the rig and then are involved in the move. I vividly remember the first few times when we moved and the feeling that it was scary because I wasn't sure about what is ahead of us. But if you are involved in the driving, you are physically doing something during this time, your mind is actively engaged in the move, not thinking about what could happen, etc. Moving every 2 weeks doesn't sound like to often to me, but then we have done that for years, with the exception of the winter months where we stay put for a couple of months.
And I would second the suggestion of getting involved with Escapees and one or more of their chapters of BOF (Birds of a Feather). We got involved with the Class of '06 and it was the best thing we ever did. Going through the process of getting to fulltiming with a group of people was great and we still meet up with them throughout the country - though after 8 years only a handful of us are still out here.
