Hello
Welcome here.
First, you should not worry and try to stay calm. The more upset you will be, the more would be your anxiety.
I think the symptoms which you developed in the background of anxiety were most probably a panic attack.
You should consult a psychiatrist for this.
Drugs like paroxetine, escitalopram(prescription drugs) will help you.
Hope this helps.
Thanks
