The electricity went out in my bedroom, but the breaker isn't tripped. I turned the breaker off and then reset it, but there is still no electricity. Then the electricity came on by itself. Now it happened again. The electricity went off again and I can't get it back on. Do I need a new breaker?

It sounds like there is a short in the wiring of your home or at your breaker box. You need to test the electric lines with a voltmeter to determine where the short is. If this is an issue do not do it and call in a person who can do this for you and repair your problem.
Could actually be from the city itself (patchy brown outs). That was our case with your same situation last week.
This requires a professional , reason is that any time you have on and off situations, this is not good for the home. This sounds like a shortage that is being triggered by something.
