@amotherslove2 This is similar to how it started off with my son, when he was 21, on Xmas break from college, right before his diagnosis of bipolar 1 disorder. He was acting very strangely, not sleeping and kept coming into our room during the night telling us he wanted to talk to us about a secret or something. We kept telling him to go to bed to no avail. It was like he was on drugs but he wasn’t. We took him to hospital in the mornin for an evaluation and that was the start of this long 10 yr journey through mental illness. I’m not saying that your son has the same thing, but I think you should get him evaluated and he can get treatment, if necessary. Please stay in touch, sending prayers your way.
