    Freakout means a loss of control of emotions.

    It's most commonly used as a verb: Stacey freaked out when she learned that she was fired from her job. (Stacey was angry and crying and went a little bit crazy.)

    It might also be used as a noun, but I can't come up with an example (I must need more coffee).

    In addition to Stacey's examples, it can also be used transitively:
    Stacey freaked me out when she started screaming at me.
