I put my driver side window down this morning and it won't come back up. All other windows work fine. Please help, I'm freaking out. Thank you

Can you work the rear switch to see if the window works? also can you hear the motor working at all when the switch is activated? Here is a guide to help test through the switch to see if the motor gave up:
