I advise that you find the nearest pillow and scream every obscenity you can think of direclty into it. Then, once that's done, count backwards from 10. Lay on the bed, and take deep, deep breathes and do an "in with the good, out with the bad" focus of your thoughts as best you can. Maybe put a cool wash cloth across your eyes as if you have a headache, and turn the lights off.

Maybe put a sign on the door that says: "I am not well at the moment, please take nothing personally, I need some quiet time to calm myself. I love you." This may stop him from trying to talk. Later when you are calm you can talk to him.

If things are not calming down in an hour or two, call your T or pdoc if you have one.
