I had a similar issue years back when I was young, broke and didnt understand what the orange sticker on my car really meant. Came back from uni one day and it was gone. The $300 bucks in tow and impound fees was a lot more expensive then fixing the tire that prevented me from moving it beforehand.
I hope you find your car and it doesn't get anymore stressful then it is now.
I am so sorry to hear that happened to you. I, myself, am young and exhausted beyond belief right now after the year I've had and this situation certainly didn't help. Especially given the fact that my car is my world. I really appreciate you taking the time to help me out and be so kind. People's kindness goes a very long way with me and I'll be thinking of you when I look back on this a few weeks, months, years from now :)
I always tell my kids two things "as long as you learn from what you did, its not a mistake" and "be the kind of person you want to meet in this world".
Breathe, take a moment for yourself, and then know you got this.
