Nicole Curtis shared a personal post with her fans detailing a panic attack she had over her ongoing custody battle with her ex Shane McGuire.

To take her mind off of missing her son, Curtis said she went hiking with "a few wonderful mom[s]."

"They save the mommy in me," she wrote.

In November, the 41-year-old told People she worries splitting time between her home and her ex's home could be difficult for her son Harper.

"He has attachment issues with all this hustling back and forth,” she told People. “And whether it’s the mother or the father, when you take that person away for [a period of time], it does have a traumatic effect."
