I have a bracelet with charms on it, chosen especially and put onto the bracelet by the people closest to me. I live quite far from my family and don’t get to see them often, so having this bracelet makes me feel less alone when I’m struggling.

Earlier I realised it was gone from my wrist, and I had a complete hysterical breakdown when it wasn’t in any of the places that I would usually put it, and I just couldn’t stop crying until it was found (my partner found it under the drivers seat of the car). It was like 0-100 and I can’t explain it but it was like I had lost this item that made me feel close to my family when I wasn’t with them or talking to them. 

Has anyone else had this, where their emotions just went completely haywire after losing something sentimental?
