Hi Qaurterlifecrisis,
welcome to PC. I'm very sorry you had such an awful experience. When you were taken from your home - were you threatening to hurt yourself? If you visit a psychiatrist they won't put you in the hospital unless you pose a danger to yourself or others and your mom has promised she won't do that again. I think you should start out by going to your family doctor and I think you would greatly benefit by trying some medication - just to calm and take the edge off. I know you don't like pills but sometimes we do need to take them. You may have a true medical imbalance that needs to be medically fixed and that's okay.
Once you go to your family doctor, he/she will make an appt. with a psychiatrist or therapist - by that time you might already be feeling better from the meds. Do you know any self help methods for handling panic attacks? Please know this was an isolated incident and this won't happen again.
