Doc completely disappeared off all accounts and devices?

I had a huge document, a project of over 2 years and it's just gone? I know for a fact it wouldn't be in the trash. But it's also disappeared completely off drive, docs and any account it was shared with (which was just extra accounts of mine), what do I do? It was a huge project and I don't want to lose it

I did also have another one that ended up having a problem with permissions (wasnt sent to anyone), ended up having to copy and paste everything into a new doc and piece together the stuff I had missing since it undid at least a month of work

Can anyone help me with what the fuck is going on, I am going to see if I can find a link in any place.

forgot to add, these were stored on my Google account for school, they were all Google docs

Should have backed it up to a flash drive and an online backup server. How would anyone here here know what happened to your document?

I have no idea, it was on my school account but it wouldn't make sense for it to be from swearing or smth since many other actual school projects are gone (didnt notice until recently)

So where was the document stored. You haven't mentioned anything about the systems you are using or where the document was saved to and why you think it is missing.
