If you're getting spikes up to 18V then your regulator is almost definately on the way out.
If your regulator is shagged your battery probably won't be charging correctly which will be causing the problems you are experiencing.
Charge your battery back up and get the car started, drive around a bit and watch for voltage spikes... voltage should be around 13.5 to 14.5V normally with out your headlights / high beams on.
If you get many spikes try not to drive at night until you get your alternator fixed.
