My head hurts a lot and my pupal is fully diolated also i can't sleep at all. what does that mean?

See a doctor ASAP: If you have a focally dilated pupil, this could be a sign of nerve compression at base of brain, and may be associated with an aneurysm. The headache could well be secondary. Although there may indeed be other explanations, you should not delay, and get this evaluated today.
