Why did i freak out during an arrest?

Okay, during an arrest a few years ago, once the handcuffs were placed on me, I had a huge panic attack. I started shaking, my lips were quivering, I was crying, my heart was palpitations, and I had severely high blood pressure. So much that an ambulance was called for me.
For the life of me, I'll never understand why I became so emotionally upset. Was it the sheer humiliation?
Please someone, help me understand it.

    It’s the stress of being unsure what’s going to happen to you and completely losing control of the situation you’re in. I had a similar reaction when I was cuffed, though they didn’t call an ambulance.

    Practice can calm this down or make this a better experience. Let your SO put cuffs on you and play a little. Next time the police do it you can get excited instead of panicking.
