I have no idea where to turn for help, so I think it’s weird but i’m going to try it here. I’m desperate and i need to talk to someone right now. I’m just going to go from the beginning. I haven’t written anything like this before, but i feel like i need to get this off my chest. <br><br>I have a son, 2 years old now. He was a perfectly normal child (or so i thought). I have no idea how I got here. My sons name is John. He was a weird baby even from the start. I think it was when he was 4 or 5 months old. I was changing my sons diaper, when i noticed that he started to smile at me. He wouldn’t stop smiling at me. He just kept smiling for some reason. I would try to do different things, like singing, but nothing seemed to get him to stop. He just kept smiling. So i just left it, and thought that he was just a happy baby. I mean, thats not a bad thing right? I thought nothing of it.<br><br>He grew up, to be a normal, happy, energetic toddler. I remember the first time he started to walk. His little legs wobbling everywhere, falling, but always getting back up. The day he said his first word. The first time he hugged me and said “I love you Daddy.” All of those first that no parent ever truly forgets. John was just so special. <br><br>I remember another time, when John was about 1 year old now. He wasn’t able to talk yet. Me and my wife were in the kitchen, when my son just started laughing, then crying. He wouldn’t stop. We tried different things. Changing his diaper, feeding him, rocking him to sleep, taking him for a car ride. Nothing would work. He just kept crying, then laughing. We were so confused. We took him to the doctor. He said there was nothing wrong with him, that he was just weird. So i thought that he was just a weird kid. I mean, i can live with that. I can’t complain about anything. My son was healthy, and happy (or at least i thought he was). We lived in a big house near the woods. It was a little isolated, but i liked the peace and quiet. <br><br>Anyway, i think it was a month ago now, when John started to talk. He had never said a full word until now. My wife was feeding him, when he said “I’m hungry.” My wife and i were so happy! He learned how to talk. That is a huge milestone. We thought that everything was great. Then it all came crashing down. <br><br>John started to talk more and more, but it just wasn’t right. He would talk like an adult. He knew massive words. Like one time he said to my wife “Can i have some pan-seared salmon for dinner please?” Me and my wife were dumbfounded. Where the hell did he learn that? My son knows how to talk like an adult, but he can’t even walk properly? It just didn’t make sense. <br><br>One night i was going to check on John. I walked into his room, and there he was, sitting upright in bed just staring at me. He didn’t move, he didn’t blink, he didn’t do anything. He just stared at me. I thought he was just playing a trick on me, so i went back to bed. Then the next night. I walked into his room. There he was again, just staring. At this point, I’m getting a little creeped out. <br><br>Some nights, i can hear my son talking in his room. It sounds like he is having a conversation. I have even heard him laugh maniacally. I don’t know what he is talking to. There is no one else there. I hear him talk about things like movies, weird names, people i have never heard of. It weirds me out. <br><br>I just want to protect my son. I feel like i failed him. I feel like there is something wrong with him. I don’t know what to do, and i don’t know where to turn to. Any advice would be greatly appreciated<br><br>**Update is in the comments**
