I think I'm going crazy
I really do.
Here are my symptoms:
-I hear a constant ringing
-I hear a heartbeat plusing in my right ear. (This isn't constant, it comes in phases of 20 minutes or so.)
-I become irrationally angry with people
(This happens in public a lot. If I go somewhere I've never been, I can become very angry for no reason at everyone I see. I feel my heartrate increase and overall rage.)
-I see small animals like birds and squirrels that others claim not to see
-I get overwhelmingly dizzy
-I have a reocurring dream of this guy called Patrick who is very bad. He manipulates people in the most horrible and nasty way. I am scared I might see him in real life.
Any psychology experts, can you assess what might be happening to me?
Am I going crazy? What is going on?

Maybe give some free advice about: Mental health?
Based on the manner and consistency of the composition of your question, I wouldn't be in a hurry to jump into conclusions about your mental health.
Your first two symptoms sound more like a potential hearing problem than anything else. My advice to you is to get your hearing checked. As a matter of fact I will further suggest you get your self a full physical, so you can get a peace of mind.
Your tendency to become easily angered in public, coupled with you feeling your heart rate increase, might be you experiencing an anxiety attack.
I don't have enough information to render an advice, pertaining to you seeing small animals that others claim not to see, because it very well could go both ways. In regards to you actually experiencing a hallucination, or more than likely you really do see what's actually there. (Keep in mind, that small animals tend to be shy, and move very fast.)
I don't think you are going crazy, I suspect you might struggle with anxiety issues, and you might want to get your hearing checked.
Good luck.

There is a condition called Tinnitus which causes ringing and hissing noises in the ear, it can also be acompanies by dizzyness.
You really need to see your doctor about this, noone here can diagnose you.
If it is Tinnitus, you'll most likely be reffered to an ear,nose and throat specialist.
If you are in the Uk you can call NHS direct for free and speak to a nurse about your symptoms and they'll advise you on what to do but since yours in a long term thing you really need to talk to your GP.
