'Half Empty'

Hi people.
I have just registered on here hoping to find some reassurance. I have struggled with anxiety for years and only just started to accept i may have a disorder. If indeed it is anxiety??
It is in recent weeks it has got increasingly more difficult to deal with. On the face of it i 'have the world at my feet', getting married this year and have a little girl, good job, nice home, new cars etc etc
Three years ago my previous marriage ended and my little lad was taken some 130 mies away. Within 2 weeks he called another man daddy and the contact with him refused. The court battle began. I now see him and travel over 500 miles every time i go.
Although i am more settled in my relationship and family life than ever before, All this seems to amount to Panick attacks, difficulty breathing,insecuurity, neediness, chest pain, mood swings, inpatience Sometimes i am thinking of things that upset me. Other times it just comes on and i cant control it. When it happens, life ends and panic kicks in.
At the risk of me sounding soft 'Im scared'.
Would i be right in thinking that the only people that understand are those who suffer from it??
Please help!!!
