[QUOTE="Beta, post: 740723, member: 22597"] Thank you all again for your counsel, hugs, and prayers. Much appreciated. Yes, our son is on our phone carrier and the police told us to track him through that. Unfortunately, the carrier sends a message to the "trackee" asking for their permission to be tracked (?!) I can understand that there would be situations where this would be necessary, but it makes it impossible for us to track him so that we can send someone to him. I like the suggestion about calling a crisis intervention agency and asking if they will call him. I don't know that he would answer his phone (Millennials don't like to answer their phones generally anyway) but maybe he would. Then again, it could make him angrier and more suspicious of us. I don't know. I am continuing to text him, asking him to call us, asking him to please just pack up his car and come here. There are so many moments when my mind goes down that path of imagining all the horrible things that might happen to him, and I just want to sink to the floor and cry. Those of you who are in this type of situation, how do you handle those thoughts? I am leaning on God and trying to trust Him for this, but it is the hardest thing I've ever been through. My husband wants me to "back off" for right now, but I'm having a hard time doing that. [/QUOTE]
