When was the last time you panicked about losing something?

I am so happy for you. I would never want to lose my cell phone and have to start all over again with everything, including having to buy another one. Good going. I am sure this will never happen to you again.

No way is it just a phone for me either sweety , I keep everything on there! I really do need to sync it on my pc as I have the software installed now - in fact I think I am going to do that as soon as I respond to this! Erm the last time I panicked about losing something was this morning - I forgot where I had put the sample bottle that I needed to get hold of before she went to the toilet! She really needed to go and I was panicking a lot! Luckily I found it right in the nick of time and all was well! lol xxx

I did something similar with my phone a while ago. I went at around midnight, to an all night Tesco store, near Gatwick Airport. Obviously, being open all night an at the Airport, this store gets busy. I remember it was drizzling with rain and I packed the shopping quickly into the car, and travelled the ten miles home. A while later, I wanted to send a text message... couldn't find my phone. Eeeeeeeeeeek!!! I did the same, and dialled my number but no luck, and no answer either. So, I phoned the phone company and asked them to lock my phone. Then I phoned Tesco. They hadn't found it. The only think I could recall, was hanging my phone on the hook on the trolley, whilst I shopped, so had to make the ten mile journey back. How lucky was I? The trolley hadn't been used since my use of it, and the phone still hung there. Phew!!! What relief!!! Brightest Blessings, my friend.

The last time I panicked about losing something was over a cell phone too. I went to use it while I was on break one day and it wasn't in my pocketbook. I started freaking out because it's always with me in my bag, you know? I looked all over my work and I was asking everybody but nobody had seen my phone. I called my husband and asked him if he had seen it and he hadn't seen it either. I was panicking by this time. I finally get to leave that day and my hubby tells me when I get home that he had found it outside in our driveway! It was really cold at the time when this happened. It must have fallen out of my pocketbook the night before and I didn't realize it because I rarely use my cell at home since we still have a landline. I'm just glad it was okay, cold, but okay. I know it might seem silly to freak out about a phone but alot of information was in that phone and other people have info stored in my phone, like addresses and email addresses. I wouldn't ever want their information stolen.

I can't think of the last time I panicked after losing something. But, if I lost my cell...heck yea! I would panic like panicking was my job! Mine was a pricey model and it has all of my contacts and calendar events in it. It keeps me very well organized. It has personal voice notes for reminders that I have made while driving. And, I just love my cell phone. LOL! So, I can understand your pain of having lost your phone and you were lucky that it was turned back in instead of kept! It is nice to know that there are still some honest people in the world!

I am still living in the dark ages, and do not have a cell phone. So all my numbers are in a book, or on the puter. But I have been known to loose my keys. I have literaly had to train my self to put them in a dish eveyday or I loose them. Just ask my kids, they remember when mom use to loose her keys all the time. I am glad you found your phone Rachel. That is great they found it and you were able to get it back. Happens alot were I work, we always put them up till the owner comes looking.

i also had ever lost my cell phones before... 2 times and i never get them back... i am not as fortunate as you... they got stolen from my bag and when it falls out from my bag... i can't do anything and i just have to buy a new cell phone... it definitely make me very panic when i lose my cellphone as i got all the important numbers there...

Im so glad there are nice people out there.LOL I glad to hear you got your cell phone back. I would have been upset too. Whenever I lose something I always back tract like you did.

I actually don't remember! :) I am a really forgetful person and i have been forgetting where i put my things, especially my keys, i would just find them in my posket after sometime. so what i do is put everything in front of me... Sometimes if i lose something and did not feel panicking, i just know its somewhere near me... is it true for some of you too? that if we dont get panicked its just within our reach? :D

Last time I panicked when dad fell ill last month. I was at office and did noty have an idea. i called at home and he told me to come back as he was not feeling well. I panicked as there was none else at home.I rushed home and took to hospital. it was nightmare for me. Thanks God you have got back the cell.

When I lost my ring and I really cried coz that is my engagement ring. It is so special to me but my bad im so forgetful it just above mt computer

That's a funny thought.. I think it was last Christmas, I misplaced my ATM and it just had my bonus money in it.. I was so panicking and even called the bank because I would really need to do some Christmas shopping,, plus, that has a lots of amount of money.. gladly I found it after 10 hours of search.. it was in one of my pocket from the laundry..

Mine was yesterday morning I was already begginning to run behind for work and then I'm all ready and cant find me keys. I know this is probally the most common thing people loose and its so easy to fux if I'd just hang thme on its key rack. Somedays I do somedays I dont I mostly dont because I'm in a rush to get in the house and do something. Today however they are on the key rack hahah

The last time I panicked big time is when I thought I lost my wallet. I am organized but tend to be forgetful. It is just payday then and I have withdrawn from my ATM. It happened on a restaurant as I was treating myself a good meal. Then suddenly while finishing my baked ziti, I trembled when I couldn't feel the wallet on my jeans's front pocket. I rummage my bag, took everything out but no sign of the wallet. I look everywhere near my table, still no luck. I remember going to the ladies room,so I decided to go there. As I was going to the ladies room I am nervous that is not there and someone already took it. It seemed that the world stopped at that moment , I am thinking what I am going to do ? how am I going to pay ? I quickly opened the cubicle where I went before and there, I found my wallet on top of the shelf . I quickly grabbed it and went back to my table. I checked my wallet make sure that everything is intact and it is ! It took me minutes before I could eat again as I was so nervous,happy to be able to find my wallet again. I went home feeling the luckiest person at that time. Until now I have a phobia about loosing my wallet, I seem to check it every now and then if its still there.

I had a similar experience, also with my cell phone. I got home from work a little early and decided I would go out for a nice little run; I went through and took a nice little jog around the block twice, with everything in my pocket. I specifically remember putting my cell phone in my pocket... yet when I got back home I realized that it was gone. That was pretty much why I took a second run following my footsteps. After about an hour, I realized that I lost the phone. There was no finding it; I actually called my insurance in and got a new phone. It was a panic, mostly because I always worry about it because it's the only form of communication I have besides my computer. It's all I got in terms of a phone. But like I said; I got a new phone and it only took a couple of days.

how strange that the manager turned off the phone... maybe your calling it was irritating her, lol. I wonder why she did not get the home phone number from your cell phone and call you to let you know it was found - unless that is considered an invasion of privacy. The last thing that I really panicked over was my purse which contained a recent withdrawal of 2000 dollars, we were heading to make a large purchase. I had absent mindedly left it in a shopping cart and then the shopping cart in the return section outdoors. I am so grateful for the honest patrons that turned it in!

G'day maddysmommy, I could totally relate to your story up there. As for my experience, I am the person that goes everywhere with my bike and I could not for one second not going anywhere without my k4 bike. So, there was this one time that I went to the money-changer and I was in a rush. I parked my bike near to the shopping mall, on the pavement for a while while I dashed to make a quick money-change. After about close to 10 minutes when I came back, I noticed that my bike was no longer there. I panicked like hell. I ran like a madman, with the helmet still intact on my head. I rushed and asked people whether they have seen this color bike and etc. All said no. I squatted down and tried to remember whether I've left the key there, but the key was in my pocket. I really was so worried. So, I took the taxi home in a very angry mood and went home to get some sleep. Suddenly, I remembered that I should make a police report and then went down quickly. You know what happened? It turned out that the police representative had "towed away" my bike because I had totally missed out paying my insurance for that year, blimey!! It was not that I purposely did not pay, instead I totally had forgotten about my insurance payment, LOL!! The next day, I went to the insurance side and paid everything and got my lovely bike back. That was 1 incident that made me totally panicked and I could remember it up till now. It was kind of stupid on my part, actually and I really hope it wouldn't happen again. ;)

Cell phone? I don't think I have one of those. I have a third arm with an antenna! My last panic attack was the day before yesterday when I thought that I lost my husband's business credit card. I had used it the day before and I was going to return it to him, but I couldn't find it. I checked all my jean pockets, every pocket in my purse, in my wallet, on all the tables and any other flat surface in the house. I even checked all over in my vehicle, but nothing. So, I finally resolved with myself that I had lost it, but as a last ditch effort, I picked up his wallet and there it was! I had put it back in his wallet already. I felt like I was going to pass out .

yesterday, it was intending to have lost my key of the locker of the work but to at last it was in the locker, wich shame did i fell, i just forgot. as for the cell phone they already robbed me very often
