Does anyone ever get this feeling?

It’s hard to describe it really, like a sudden very insecure, almost scared feeling? I suppose it’s anxiety of some sort.
For example, last night Dh took Dd, 4 to bed, she ended up sleeping in our bed, as sometimes happens, our dog was up there too.
I was downstairs alone, having some peace, watching tv.
I was coming up to bed and had this feeling, it just gripped me and I felt insecure/scared, I start to worry about what would happen if something happened to us, it might be because we live abroad and I feel less secure when I think like this 🤷🏻‍♀️I start to think I wish we lived near or with my parents/family.
I lay down in the cosiness that was all of us cuddled up together but felt this awful feeling 😒
What is it, does anyone else get it?
I’m sorry, it’s hard to articulate, it’s a fear of sorts.

I have this most of the time and just occasionally it goes and I feel ok! I am going through ‘difficulties’ at the moment though.

It's not a panic attack, more anxiety. Just a feeling of anxiousness, worried and unsure of yourself or a situation.
