How to stop worrying?

It's been almost a week since the latest incident with my son and my realization that he can no longer live here and that i have to stop "helping" him. But my anxiety/worry hasn't subsided one bit. If anything it's gotten worse I think. I can't eat, relax, unclench my jaws, or stop my hands from shaking. I have all these horrible thoughts running through my mind as I'm not sure where he is or how he's doing. I know he was referred to a program but also know it was his choice as to go or not. He could be there...or he could be on the streets.. For all I know he could be dead. Any advice from other moms in dealing with the worry? My hands are sore from praying, I've tried meditation but can't seem to focus. I made sure I haven't been alone as much as possible and have chosen to be with supportive people which has helped a little but no matter how much I try I just can't seem to even follow a conversation with others without drifting off to thoughts of my son. just can't stop.
