Welcome to Health Care Magic Forum:
Your faintness when you had cut when you were having eye brows is from vasovagal reason. But dizziness in some nights and heart beating fast may due to abnormal rhythms in heart. So you need EKG, tilt table test, Holter monitoring which are basic investigations to know the cardiac and vasovagal causes. I recommend you consult your GP to get these tests done. Once these tests are negative, you can suspect panic attacks or anxiety.
