you have activated the prd valve.
you can buy this part and fit it yourself. (don't make one as this is a safety device your playing around with and you could get scalded by the hot water if it becomes faulty)
you'll need to find why it tripped.
could be a faulty shower head, kinked hose,or a blockage.

I am not familiar with your particular shower but I had a similar problem. There is a rubber diaphragm inside the shower and this had split letting water escape from the bottom of the unit. I made a new diaphragm which cured the problem. If the shower head is removed this will reduce the pressure in the pipe and this will limit the leak.
