For two months I’ve been trying to come to terms with a decision which I believe is coming. I had the trial for custody of the children with my ex. It went badly. I believe I am going to lose my children. When the judge makes this decision, I need to cope. I don’t know how. Is there anyone that has been through this and can share strategies?

Going through family court is so stressful. I’d personally start seeing a psychologist. You are going to need someone to help you through this. So a mental health care plan is where I’d start.
I’ve not gone through what you are going through but you need someone for you who doesn’t have an emotional tie to this situation.
Other than that, all I can suggest is live your best life. Be the best person you can be. Don’t go down the path of self destruction. And hold that door open because while he might get custody, the healthier you are the better position you will be in to maintain some relationship with your kids.
Stay strong!
Get help, talk to a psychologist. Family Court is extremely stressful and they it is not always fair or just.
If you've already had the trial, there is not a lot you can do now.
I hope for your childrens sake that the judge rules in their best interest.
They usually put the meaningful relationship with both parents into orders that reflect this, so hopefully you will still be able to see them and have them in your life.
Good luck, please talk to someone soon. You will get through this for them.
