I was wondering if anyone could offer me some perspective on all these symptoms I've been having. I'm visiting a doctor tomorrow, but I guess it could be nice if I had some thoughts to go into it.
  • Short term memory loss, I keep having to backtrack to find out what I was thinking. This happens primarily when I'm tired. And this has been happening for a few weeks now and is kinda what started me to worry.
  • Headaches, though I only notice them when I don't focus on anything else. It's especially awful when trying to get to sleep.
  • Mild Insomnia/disruption of normal sleep pattern, because of the headaches mostly.
  • I had a really bizarre moment this morning where I woke up to a flash of my brain shortcircuiting. I couldn't tell whether it was a nightmare - although I guess it has to be, but I can't remember ever being quite as scared as I was after that happened.
  • I feel like there's a high pitched noise in my ears that wasn't really there before, it feels like background noise related to the headaches, if that makes sense.
  • When I put on/off my glasses, it seems like it takes my vision a longer time than usual to adjust or be fine with it.

I've had some back problems recently, if I had to make a guess I think it could be related to what I have. In that case the problem should go away by itself in a few weeks, but my 'nightmare' scared me sufficiently that I really want a doctor's opinion to satisfy myself. I'm not even sure if I'd be able to go to sleep tonight based on my worrying. I've also been seeing shadows and hearing strange sounds that are almost like hallucinations and I'm pretty sure I invented those myself and they have nothing to do with a potential illness, but more with the stress I'm putting myself under for it. But I don't really know what to do otherwise, I'm scared to go to sleep.

All I know for sure about is the high-pitched noise. It's some sort phenomenon which I can't remember the name of. It's harmless and it's not a symptom of anything.

Everything else sounds like a result of believing that you are/could be mentally ill. The initial thought of being ill probably struck your mind after your nightmare, leading to your keen observation of yourself. That could have revealed some things you didn't know about yourself, leading you to falsely confirm your previous thoughts.

Either that or it's a result of lack of sleep. When you go to bed tonight, let your mind wander while you're going to sleep. Start off with a happy topic so your thoughts don't stray to your fears.

Just my two cents. I'm not qualified in any way to make a judgement about your status, though.

The short term memory loss seems pretty normal, at least the way you describe it.
Also, the "hallucinations" are nothing to fear by themselves. I got a noisemaker about 10 years ago because when it's off during the night, I heard the most freakish alien noises. Also, in the darkness, I noticed disturbing shapes, patterns and movements in ordinary things.
The night can be the scariest thing in the world if you let it.
"How are you?" "I am fine, because it is not normal to scream in pain."
