People Share What Happened When They Went MISSING (r/AskReddit)

our slashes credit redditors who were a missing-person what's your story I've been waiting to tell this one for ages but I couldn't get it to post in our / - less from fest Burtka for some reason it probably started out as pretty routine welfare check on an insulin dependent diabetic man with a number of mental health issues and a rather serious phobia of needles who had managed to put himself at the ICO as a result of all the above the local hospital had arranged for a district nurse to come out and administer his meds and generally make sure he wasn't trying to commit suicide by DK again he wasn't answering the door or his cell phone and this was especially worrying because he'd been transported to the air for a checkup after pushing himself too hard too soon the previous evening so the local police were called and two officers arrived to force the door they didn't find the man they were looking for what they did find was a handgun in the linen closet since this was taking place in the UK where for better or worse we consider screwing over law-abiding gun owners an acceptable price for not having active shooters every other week this was kind of a big deal q the armed response unit turning out and the police taking it away as evidence of a potential crime along with a hunting crossbow they found in the same closet totally legal but in the circumstances somewhat suspicious and definitely not something to leave lying around with the door kicked in and a missing person smartphone now within about 60 seconds of the officer in the gun cage getting a close look at the pistol the cops first on scene were left looking very silly indeed it was a co2 powered pellet gun albeit one that looked almost exactly like a real gun unless you were close enough to read the markings on the side and broken up that this meant that the mysterious vanishing diabetic was probably not an aspiring terrorist or bank robber so they could stand down the specialist firearms officers and the helicopter and so on and I'm sure some people were secretly a little disappointed about this because this is a quad semi rural County and they get to see very little real action but they still need to figure out where the hell this guy had gone because if he missed his insulin more than twice in a row he was [ __ ] and nobody had seen him since he'd been discharged from the accident and emergency departments at 7:00 p.m. the previous evening every person whose number they could find on the phone which turned out to be stuck in a boot loop because the charger wasn't delivering enough power hadn't heard from him in a few days well I'll tell you where that guy was I was in the waiting room of the same hospital I'd left the previous night for the 10:00 a.m. appointment the receptionist at her and he either didn't know about or didn't think to mention to the police when they called so they could carry out some further tests I'd received assurances from the person I spoke to when I checked in that the district nurses were on the same it's system and they'd be notified of my location I can only assume that said notification occurred after the alarm had been raised and nobody noticed until it was too late I knew nothing of this until I came home late that afternoon they asked me to come in for 10:00 a.m. but it was well after lunchtime before the court scanner had a free slot and found my door kicked in until I logged into FAFSA book on my PC I thought someone had broken in with the intention of burdening me only to see the state of the place and assumed someone had already turned the flat over before them the police officers who stopped by a short while later to return my stuff were surprisingly nice about it incidentally maybe it was because I was palpably embarrassed instead of belligerent about having my property confiscated and/or the fact I have an accent so incredibly middle-class that I'm pretty sure it's kept me out of jail at least once but that's another story happened twice at the time I was really surprised and annoyed but looking back you might think I would feel guilty but I don't think it was even called for so I was a teenager and my school did this stupid thing where we split up and have lessons at other schools transportation never arrived so we would walk the 45-minute trip there be late and then walk 45 minutes back and be late so after school at this other school it was quicker to walk to my boyfriend's house and his mom would drive me back the next day on her way to work I went to my BFS and it turned out he was cheating on me I was so levered I just put my clothes and shoes on and left crying while he was in the loo calmly I might add said goodbye to his mum I started walking home a friend lived round the corner so I dropped by his house and his mum made me dinner I say drop by he heard me bawling down the street before I walked past his house on the route home I didn't text my mum because I was on my way home my parents never really cared much so if I was drunk and staying out they might know if I wake them up but they would never come pick me up if I was stuck somewhere or care if I didn't say where I was going they knew I rarely came home anyway except to wash and get more clothes and school books home was awful and a place that actually I should have run away from or called social services about but I was 17 and just drank to numb it so I was so exhausted I cried myself into a nap and then friend left me to sleep all night my phone died so I couldn't call my mum as no idea what her number was so I got up had a healthy breakfast and showered and went to school I was fiddling trying to plug my phone in after begging around for a charger and teacher was shouting at me to stop playing on phone I am NOT I'm trying to do something important just let mum know I'm okay and that I fell asleep police came in and asked if we had seen me I was like I'm right here hello wTF is going on mum apparently out all night in car don't believe that for a second more like celebrating alone time with a glass of wine boyfriend had thought I'd stormed off but would be back because I forgot to put shoes on I had two pairs there so he told my mum I'd run away when I didn't come back was always a nob I'd planned on walking home but it was so far and she wouldn't have come got me anyway she once left me at 10 p.m. with bus money stolen a broken nose and dressed in a skirt to walk two hours home because she couldn't be bothered to get me so I slept in a field all she did was moan about grass stains and being promiscuous so I couldn't believe she was suddenly interested second time all night pool party got changed and went home lost bikini couldn't find it turned out it was hooked on to my clothes and my bottoms fell off as I went indoors at this point I lived there's a lodger with a weird man I was pissed as a fart and collapsed in bed naked while trying to put the JSON and arranged a meet-up with friends woke up to 999 missed calls from friends and mother apparently been all night searching for me again here I was drunk and at home embedded it they took it to think the weirdo was holding me hostage and raping me because pants outside because I didn't answer the phone at 3 a.m. after being at the pool party they knew I went to because photos were all over Facebook and they had a coach drop us all home I was delivered to my front door by 30 odd people I know and still the police were involved I was not even living with them and I had zero contact with my mother for three years so I just didn't understand why she was contacting the police because surely I must have been missing three years or if they asked the last time she saw me would have been something like backquote two Christmases ago it just amazes me how people don't care about you until it's exciting for them to make a scene not me I was in officer school and they'd let one of us experience presenting and one of the guys from my batch got to teach a session on the dangers of hitchhiking he did a brief study of a few guys that hitchhiker a soldiers and got abducted by disguised terrorists who wanted to kill soldiers and or use them to plea bargain for the release of jailed terrorists all these soldiers ended up killed by the terrorists for instance Nats and VAX Minh then he told us about this one guy the only Israeli soldiers ever picked up by terrorists who made it out alive this soldier got in a car with a driver opened the window for some breeze and as doff as they were riding out of Jerusalem he awoke to being strangled with a wire by a second terrorist who had been hiding in the back seat and started to struggle then the driver while driving pulled out a gun the soldier desperately tried to grasp anything he could and of all things managed to pull out the radio he bashed it into the face of both his perpetrators and the car and in the midst of the messy moment going down the windy road towards Jericho he grasped the window frame and pulled himself out the window and ended up badly bruised and scratched in a ditch but alive next a fellow trainee / lecturer stepped off and showed a TV interview with that surviving soldier and photos of what he looked like right after the beating he took and it was him the very trainee that was giving the lecture we were quite shocked we knew he'd been a solid guy throughout the course but had no idea what he'd been through nor that he didn't just look tough but had been tried and tested and he had sufficient excuse to go civilian but was deeply deliberate about serving his country as a soldier it was my first day in kindergarten I was supposed to go to the after school day care without hasta note saying I was supposed to so the teacher shoved me under the bus and told the bus driver where I lived not sure if that's actually how it went down but regardless they made me leave the bus drops little five-year-old me off at home all the doors are locked and my mother wouldn't even get out of work for another 2 to 3 hours so I do what any little kid does I sit on my front porch and cry luckily I lived right across the street from the high school and this angel of a woman sees me from the other bleachers while a soccer game was going on she comes over to check on me and stays with me the entire time meanwhile at the school the staff is going crazy because him nowhere to be found my mother was caught and Azzam told crying profusely then out of the blue I see this nineteen sixties brown Cadillac pull up and over walks my principal he thanks the women for taking care of me and brings me back to the school because of my situation they suspended my teacher and the bus driver and I never do anything without proper paperwork edit just talked to my mother and apparently the teacher left because of major medical issues at the time I was reported missing for a few days because I ran away from home at 16 I ran away with my 17-year old boyfriend who was not reported missing by his parents my parents had read through some of my chat messages I had a habit of saving logs and knew I was likely heading north or west but weren't sure thankfully since I was listed as missing and they knew who I was with the guy was being monitored and he used his debit card on the way so they had an idea where I'd be cops came with a search warrant to the place we were staying a couple hours before we were going to head off west we already had a new car ready to go with some cash to make it harder to be tracked were gonna leave later that night I'm very lucky if we'd taken off before the cops found me there's a more than decent chance I'd have stayed missing and life would have been very very bad I married the guy a couple months later and he was an abusive [ __ ] his manipulations and isolation of me were a huge factor in the running away also I had a decent stay at a sheep farm while a ward of the state though waiting for my parents to arrive and get me that was neat then I got home and a family friend came over to scream at me about how I was trying to murder her daughter and that I was a disgrace not so neat not that interesting that I was 14 and I decided to walk to my then boyfriend's house which was an hour away walking but I thought I could do it since it was still in the same city anyway I sneak out the front door while everyone's asleep and I almost got kidnapped some guy pulled up in his car on the side of the street where I was walking there was no sidewalk so I was in the shoulder and I made the ugliest double chin face I could make and picked up a rock trying to make myself look super ugly so I wouldn't get kidnapped and I just stood there with double chins until he finally drove off I kept walking it's maybe 25 minutes later and I've now found myself passing nightclubs and so many people outside drunk and in short revealing clothes that's when I got scared and went up to two policemen I saw in the corner I told them I needed a ride home and they asked for my info I gave them my address and name they looked me up on their computer and found out there was a missing person report out on me when they dropped me off in front of my door my mom was up my sister my aunt and uncle and cousins were there it was the most embassy moment of my life and I never snuck out again I have a story and it's actually about me when I was 7 years old everyone in my family got the flu pretty bad my two younger sisters and I all shared a room adjacent to my parents and my baby brother was sleeping in my parents bed well because of the illness my two younger sisters were also sleeping in my parents bed at around 1:30 in the morning I woke up and realized I was the only person sleeping in my room not wanting to be alone I crawled into my parents room and saw everyone cuddled on the bed feeling incredibly jealous I turned to go back to my room but had a lightbulb moment and figured out another solution i bundled down to the bottom of the covers at the foot of the bed completely covered around 2:15 my mother woke up to check on me as mother's do I wasn't there unusual she checks for me in her bed husband and three visible children she goes downstairs and check to see if I'm sleeping on a sofa or in one of the two guest bedrooms we have one door in our house that's tricky and will sometimes swing open on its own accord the door was open checks both bathrooms still no sign at around 2:30 she woke up my father it was early February and therefore quite cold out my parents walked around outside and they saw my footprints all around the house however I had been outside earlier that day and it hasn't snowed in a few weeks my parents were afraid I had become delirious and wandered outside in the cold or worse so after some heated discussion they first called the police and then our babysitter to watch the rest of the kids in about 10 minutes the entire police force of our tiny town is in our living room they have lit up all sixteen acres of our property with flood lights and have lifted up a chopper in the county over to start a search all of my siblings were woken up and move to the living room with the babysitter funnily enough this is actually my youngest sister's earliest memory the Chief of Police said they were going to crack search the house and started in my parents bedroom naturally the first thing they did was take the covers off the bed the only thing I remember is being woken up by a police officer shining the light in my face and rudely ripping the covers off me I was incredibly annoyed naturally my parents were incredibly apologetic but the officers were very good-natured and said not to worry about it and that this was definitely the preferred outcome about five months later my father and I went to the local fire halls annual fundraiser and performed a few songs that my dad had me learned specifically for this occasion and he told the story of what happened to me that night thanking the first responders for their quick action and good attitude I think we donated some money but honestly I have no idea I was slightly embarrassed because everyone was picking on me but flattered enough by the fact that I got to sing for all of the adults that I didn't mind that's probably the fastest way I've ever spent your hard-earned tax dollars you're welcome so this is kind of a wild story I was pretty young when it all happened so I know this from hearing it from family members my grandmother lives six hours or something like that away from my family growing up she would rarely come visit us at our house instead my parents brother and I would go to our cabin in the mountains and meet her there as it was a mid between both of our houses my grandmother went a little bit crazy after her husband died a few years before I was born around this time it was becoming more and more obvious that there was something wrong with her she had some very strange beliefs and starting to become a bit forgetful one day we were all at the cabin I was around four and my brother was around five at the time that day I guess my dad decided to go fishing without us all my grandma was watching my brother and I and my mom decided to take a nap she woke up and the cabin was empty there was no sign of my brother grandma or me my dad got back shortly after her and he hadn't heard anything from my grandmother either so my parents had no clue where we were I'm not sure how much time passed but my parents were obviously freaking out I think they phoned the police and were getting ready to make missing person reports when an unfamiliar vehicle pulled into the driveway out pops me my brother and grandmother and some random guy basically what had happened was my grandmother decided to take my brother and I for a walk in the woods without saying anything to my parents her being the forgetful old woman she is she got us lost eventually she found the highway and thought it would be safe for her a frail 80 year old woman and two young children to hitchhike on a highway in the middle of the mountains basically no-man's land - a ski resort here and there we were just lucky that the guy was super nice I was never filed as missing but it cold definitely happened I was four years old we were having a nice family vacation in the mountains there was this thing called baby club where parents staying at the hotel could leave their children to be cared for while they did their stuff so my parents left me and my seven years old sister with them the baby club took us to a nearby ice rink back then I was an extremely quiet kid so they kind of forgot me sitting on the bleachers and went back to the hotel my sister at first didn't realize that I wasn't with them you know she was only seven years old she was preoccupied with playing with the other kids but after a while she realized that I wasn't there and told the baby club people hey so where's my sister Q general panic my parents were extremely worried it was cold I was four years old and alone they didn't know what to do and since I was so young I cold been stupid enough to try to walk alone from the ice rink to the hotel and it was quite far especially for such a small kid while they were panicking I had enlisted the help of a random adult the details get fuzzy I was told the story by my sister and parents I was too young to remember that he asked me why I was there alone and I told him they'd forgotten me then I told him my hotel the room number and my parents name he let me piggyback him and took me back so there we were a few hours later four years old me piga booking on the back of a really tall blond stranger my parents were so relieved they didn't even sue the place it cold God so wrong i cold died in the snow i cold been kidnapped that really nice man cold been not so nice i cold forgotten the hotel name and room number to this day I have no idea how did I manage to remember that I have really shitty memory so thank you Friendly Giant man i whould probably died without you I became a missing person during my first sexual experience family vacation I was about 12 at the time my parents aunts uncles cousins grandparents all got together for a big camping expedition I met a couple of girls at the swimming pool and they suggested I sneak into their tent that night at midnight to play truth or dare my parents my brother and myself all shared one big tent everyone went to bed early that night except for me all I could think about was finally touching a boob bang that was more than enough to keep me awake finally at midnight I slew a will he creeped over to the tent exit and started to unzip and of course that's when my mom woke up she asked what I was doing I told her I had to take a [ __ ] so she handed me a roll of toilet paper and I thought went back to sleep I threw the toilet paper in the bushes and went on my merry way to ting some strange fast-forward over two hours later I had made out with a girl for the first time touched a few boobs even rounded second base and was feeling pretty good about myself we noticed there were cars driving all around slowly which was unusual being as late as it was I decided to head back just in case my mom noticed I was gone I walk over a hill still sporting a massive and obvious erection only to be greeted by my entire extended family and about six cops turns out my mom had a car speed off just after I said I was going to take a [ __ ] found the toilet paper I threw and assumed I had been kidnapped the cops told me they were about to put together a search party complete with canines everyone's crying and angry at me I think the worst was when my grandfather who was always a very reserved man look me dead in the eye and asked if I realized how utterly disappointed he was in me instant boner killer I never did see those girls again not me but my brother I think he was eight at the time my parents one sister two brothers and I we're at a big fair in a neighboring village I had to stay with my parents but my siblings could go and walk by themselves not uncommon for our area we all had agreed to be back at the car at a certain time when it was that time everyone was at the car except one of my brothers we first looked for him but we couldn't find him so my mum went to some police officers who were standing there they immediately told all the other cops at the fair to look out for my brother they thought he might have been kidnapped after some time there was still no sign of my brother one of the cops suggested that he might went home with someone he knew or found some of his friends my parents always told us to not go with someone we didn't know so one of my parents went home with us into carp but my brother wasn't there then some cops were going drive slowly the route home to see if he was walking home we were all young but we would know the way when they were almost at our house they saw him he walked 8 kilometer / 5 miles home he picked up some flowers for my mother and he had pets and sheeps along the way when the new came he was found one of the cops got goose bumps from relief he had kids in the same age range and was really afraid my brother was kidnapped my brother walked home because he thought he was too late by the car the whole search was a bit over two hours he was the kid that gave my parents the most gray hairs out of the foreigners when I was young before my parents divorced I liked exploring my surroundings mind you I was deaf so my parents naturally were a bit overprotective due to that fact one day during summer vacation I was playing outside on the streets with some neighborhood kids I don't remember exactly why but I decided to go with some kids to their house to play then when I left I found another group of kids went over to play and we went to another neighborhood we met up with a group of kids there to play and ended up heading to the neighborhood park to play so many instances of play it was typical kids stuff like running around playing tag throwing balls et Cie after the other kids had left I was bored and saw yet another group of kids heading to the neighborhood pool now this pool you need to pay to get in but I wasn't aware of that I just wanted to check it out so I ended up sneaking in with that group of kids I started splashing around in my clothes didn't have my swimsuit it was the late eighties to early 90s so they weren't as strict about swimsuit roles I decided that I wanted to go to the diving area so I lined up and started jumping off the diving board and swimming to the ladder and just enjoyed myself thoroughly meanwhile my parents were at home not knowing where I went when they went out to get me I was gone they didn't know where I had gone to so they went to neighbors and asked them the neighbors who had me at their house with their kids said that I left several hours prior my parents started to panic and they started to canvass the neighborhood looking for me when they couldn't find me after some time my mum went in to call other parents and maybe the police not too sure on that part my dad got in his car and started driving around to look for me he searched the neighborhood went to the park and couldn't find me saw the neighborhood pool and remembered that I really liked going there with him he thought that I wouldn't be there but he'd give it a try went in ask the people that worked there they'd let him in to look around he found me on the in the line for the diving board about to go on he panicked and went straight to the lifeguard near the diving area and told him I couldn't swim well the lifeguard looked at him strangely and told him that I had been jumping in the diving area and swimming for around ten to fifteen minutes at that point and I was just fine I think I was around five or six at that time he was flabbergasted and well I did get in a lot of trouble for disappearing he was furious when I climbed out of the pool after my last jump and saw him right there I was grounded for two weeks which sucks but dad was pretty impressed with my swimming ability and that was the end of it I actually didn't know about dad freaking out about my swimming until years later when I was in college and I randomly mentioned that day he was completely surprised that I remembered those events but added more context to it including their searching for me map I miss my dad oh well was a child when it happened but that was just for one day I was near the limit zone basically the line between street and home when I saw my dad walk on the street which was odd because I just saw him few seconds ago at the back side of the house anyway I see him going down the street so I follow him with my special ninja walk that doesn't make a sound or at least that's what I like to think to surprise him turns out with this walk it's hard to walk at the same pace as an adult so I was getting closer but slowly this goes for the whole street length when he turns left at the corner yet he I can go faster now I run a bit to catch up and he disappeared he was off my field of view for less than five seconds and it was enough for him to vanish I was truly impressed didn't know my dad had those skills and it's not really his kind of thing to do I search a bit and find him going inside a home nice run a bit ask if I can enter cause my father is in there enters and shouts surpriiiiise to my father he was surprised but I was too turns out after a seeing him closely he wasn't my father but just looked like him a lot same hairs same clothes same walking same face even heck could have been his lost twin or something like that the only thing different was his voice I apologize and get back to the door when they ask if I lost my daddy while closing the door surprise - they get me candies which is hella nice I never get candies at my home I decide to stay and see with what I can help in the house went surprise three I don't even have to work what is this place is it even real boughs pass and near sunset my actual father show up and ask to get to the house now he meets the father looking man and they are both surprised on how they look the same see it wasn't my imagination one problem though they don't want to give me back claiming I'm their son which again is nice I don't really want to go this couple is very nice way better than what I had in home cops are called a few moment later cop talking to me ok little boy who's your daddy and me pointing at my new and cool dad it's him it's my dad the couple see we keep telling you this man isn't his dad we are his parents he was drawing points to my beautiful scroll when he showed up we don't know him my now ex father eles the cops II have proof of what he says and ask them to follow him to the house to show them the ID cards and stuff cops sighs but agrees we all go to the house and you know the rest turns out the couple were mad cause they lost their only Son few years ago that world been my age at the time I showed up at their home they didn't get in trouble which is nice they treated me as the child I was and I loved it for the time it lasted ten tenths would recommend and lesson learned when adults give you Candice they actually might be really nice and without bad intention except them you might have a good time thank you so much for watching the whole
