Today I had a very bad reaction to being emotionally abused by a friend. I started to sob uncontrolnably, to the point of hyperventilation, my hands shook violently and then both of my hands and wrists developed pins and needles in them. The loud sobbing continued and I am guessing I could have been described as hysterical.

This has never happened to me before and it was very scary.

Please help me work out what is happening to me.
