Kidnapping & Abduction in Stories = Triggering?

I think so, it somewhat sounds like as you have explained abduction is personal (they want the person) where kidnapping seems to be more about gaining something from it.

I do actually have my own story in the end it was a misunderstanding but it was still very scary. I’ll blur just incase of triggers

I was 19 and was running late for college so I called a taxi. The taxi came and I told him where I was going, He started to drive but took a wrong turn, I politely told him that I asked for (college name) he just bluntly answered “I know” and carried on driving. I said to him “I think you have taken a wrong turn.” He didn’t reply and carried on driving. I was silent for a minute before saying to him “where are you going?” He carried on driving and said “don’t worry you’ll be fine.” At this point I was panicking and thought he was going take me somewhere and god know what would happen. I decided to text my friend telling her that I thought I was being kidnapped, she thought I was joking and gave a silly reply. I tried asking him again but he ignored me. I remember feeling sick and the fear was extreme that’s when I noticed we were near my college. Turns out the normal way where most people go had roadworks so he had to take the long route. But as he didn’t explain that I was terrified!
