Anxiety: Anxiety comes to mind with these symptoms -- they could come from physiological changes that happen with sympathetic simulation leading to hyperventilation, palpitations, etc. Feelings of dissociation are common, along with dizziness. See your family doctor for a workup first -- thorough exam plus ekg and other diagnostic tests. There are good treatments for anxiety; psychiatrists can help you.

Need more info: These symptoms are very vague and nonspecific. Possibly related to diet or caffeine intake? Symptoms like these are best evaluated in person by your physician. Based on the findings, a treatment plan can be developed to help you.
