Also, I've been experiencing some tremor (especially in hands), and my memory is not as good as it used to be.

Also, I'd place more emphasis on the physical symptoms, especially the pressure in the head. The other symptoms feel like they're a result of them.

My brother recently has experiended similar symptoms. I would highly suggest that you see a doctor. My brother is a recovering drug addict. He has suffered from depression for years. He complains that he cannot think at times or contemplate situations just to mention a few of his symptoms. He says he just does not feel right in his head. It was so bad today that they took him to the hospital. He was given medication. Not sure what the diagnosis was, but it may not be what you have anyways. Please see your doctor. It really sounds like depression/anxiety, although I am not a healthcare professional. Again, please see your doctor. He or she can help diagnose you and get you headed in the right direction and back on track with your life. God Bless You!

sounds like you are under stress, a lot of it, you may need to take some time off, an just relax, and enjoy yourself. Just get away from all of that stress, and you will see that most of those symtoms will go away, you really need to learn to handle stress better.

you are describing symptoms of depression and anxiety(you may have even experienced a mild panic attack) you need to look at stressful events that my have triggered a mild depression or traumatic events happening recently or an event that reminded you of a traumatic event that happened in the past

You might want to have a CAT scan done on your brain to see if you have a tumor.
