Time will take care of most of it.
For the snapping, make sure he gets a lot of time around people. You can try to wait the problem out, since once he stops being scared he'll stop snapping, or you can try to directly tell him snapping's a bad idea. For this, you can ignore him completely when he snaps, or you can do something defiant when he does, like moving closer. Careful not to scare him, of course. The idea in either case is to tell him that snapping doesn't work but that you're not going to hurt him regardless.
The flinching will take care of itself; sooner or later he'll realize nobody's going to hurt him. Again, being friendly with people will speed this.
For the peeing, you'll want to scold him whenever he does it, and maybe send him outside or something similar. The tricky part is making him understand that you're scolding him because he peed, rather than because his panic attack was right, so you might want to wait until his other problems have subsided a little.
