I was giving advice, not criticizing, just in case I gave that impression.
You will find that as long as you make a conscious effort to stay calm...you will be able to work through nearly everything underwater. Your body really does betray you at the first hint of trouble when you are submerged...it's something instinctual that makes us instantly stupid and it takes time to get over that (hence the drill I mentioned above, among others).
Good job for blowing out when you made your 'emergency' ascent.
