Police Emergency Phone alerts

I hate the emergency phone alerts sent by the police/government. I can’t disable them. I just wokeup to one at 3am. All the cellphones in our house, 5x, were ringing. Someone kidnapped a child and they need help tracking the suspect.

When I get alerts like that I feel so useless because I’m at home in bed and couldn’t really do anything about it anyway. And I want to help. I just can’t. I hate that feeling.

I don’t like that too. It would trigger me.

I hate the loud beeping noise those amber alerts make

Yeah, mine are turned off, too. For a long time, I didn’t mind them. But now they just make me really, really anxious. So, I turned them off.

The odds of me seeing an abducted kid are pretty slim - I avoid people as much as possible when I go out. Anything involving kids being hurt winds me up so I’m better off not knowing.
