I was driving home from school today, but then, as I got to a stop sign, and break, it stopped the whole truck instantly and did not let me roll forward until I put it into reverse, then moved it forward, until I hit the brakes again, and it locked the whole thing up again, it does the same thing in neutral, first gear, second gear, and drive. When I put it into reverse gear, the brakes just work normally. can somebody help me with this?
 
You need to inspect your rear brakes.

I'm gonna guess your have a leaky axle seal... or a wheel cylinder leaking.

Contaminated drum brake linings get sticky and can lock up.

It could also be your parking brake.

If it was a sticky front caliper... those just stick and don't necessarily free up in reverse.
 
Probably something broken in the rear drums
