Airpolice, that's a bit harsh!
Striker, sounds like you had a bit of a panic attack. These kind of things happen, and often, its not the thing you are doing at the time that is the problem, but just a trigger.
It also sounds like you really like flying, and want to go on with it. Don't just give up something you like, unless you actually don't want to do it again. Give it time, see how you feel, and also think about other stuff that was happening in your life when you had the panic attack. That may well give you a better handle on what was going on.
If you find after a while you are still not enjoying the flying, or just can't get past your fears, then you can see where you are at. By then, you may have decided its not for you, or that it is, but you can't get over the fears, in which case, go speak to someone about getting help, not just giving up on your dreams.
I say all of this not as someone who knows about flying (I've only just started learning) but rather as someone who has had their own share of hang-ups, and got past them.
And don't believe people who tell you they know the answers for you. You're the only one who knows the answer for you!
Good luck
