What do you do to make your mind stop going a thousand miles an hour?

@Legend

I can't really say I do any one thing. But I can say it helps to just size yourself up. and realize you're not everything, you can't be everywhere, and you can't do everything. Focus on one thing at a time, and then put your head down and focus on each stone on the path. When you look up, you'll be closer, and then things will feel tangible... Does that make sense?

I think I'm going to be paranoid if I don't try.

@Legend

Well, let's give it a good think over on the couch or something. Might find that your thoughts are less jumbled when you are less jumbled.

I really wish he would've included instructions though instead of just anxiety. This stinks.

@Legend

I totally get if you want to try and figure out if there is any way to go check on them. But at least keep that in mind so you don't blow your heart up, yeah?

I wish everybody was as nice as you!

@Legend

*Moves my arms up to try and return as much of a hug as I can while being squeezed*

I'm just panicking. I don't know what I'm supposed to do, and my entire home might be in trouble.

@Legend

Listen. Let me drop a little bit of grounding advice, from one girl with a troublemaking dad to another. It’s not the first time he’s been in trouble, and it won’t be the last. Something may not have gone according to plan, but he’s way too accomplished for one plan failing to really bring everything else down. He might have to push a little for it, but there is no way in the world that whatever your family has going on is going to knock them down. The world would never have it so easy.

You see why I'm pacing now!

@Legend

I always did. But it’s a lot less productive than talking it out, in more ways than one.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

What do you mean? What does that mean?

@Legend

I’m no more a tracker than anyone else here. I have no idea how to trace a message or anything of the sort. Everyone I know who could try is too busy hunting down my dad. So there’s gotta be another way.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

It's just a word we agreed upon in advance. Nothing more than that.

@Legend

…
*Slowly shrugs my shoulders*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I don't have some kind of signal tracker like that. I'm not techy.

@Legend

What is the message, anyway?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

How would I do that?

@Legend

Mm…
