You are at the beginnings of a panic attack. Stop drinking caffeinate beverages for a couple of years and it shouldn't happen again.

In the meantime, there is absolutely nothing to fear. The very worst thing that could happen if you hyperventilate is that you might pass out. (Make sure you have a safe place to land, just in case). The most wonderful thing about passing out, is that while you are unconscious your brain will instantly re-set your breathing...in other words, the hyperventilation will stop and you will feel better.

If you can't stand the thought of fainting due to hyperventilation, try breathing into a paper bag, and only breathe in the air from the bag. CO2 sometimes helps.
