    Hi we are not doctors and cannot possibly give you a diagnosis over the internet and  wouldn't even if we were.    The only way is to see a doctor and get a proper medical diagnosis.  

    I think it is very unlikely to be a brain tumour and much more likely to be health anxiety and/or depression which is common.  Explain the symptoms to the doctor and see what s/he says.  x
