sightings of "energies"

Post Reply New Topic

I am not sure this is the place to bring up this topic, but here goes. My 16 yo aspie son is telling me he sees entities, energies,or beings all around all of us everyday. Now I don't want to dispute this (I don't know what's out there, do you?), but it is very disconcerting to find that he believes these are demons and that he prefers Satan. I am afraid for him and don't know if his brain is processing on a different level and he can see the energy that is exerted by everyday occurances (movement, feelings, etc.) or if he is having sensory hallucinations.

Either way, how do I get through to him that life at 16 is terrible and that it does get better. That he needs to open his mind and look at all the possibilities.

Any help, suggestions or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Well, the entities as you call them may not all be demons; they could be a whole range of things he is seeing. It would be good if he could see someone who knows about these things, but it doesn't necessarily have to be a Christian person does it. I think it should be someone neutral without a religious bias, though not sure what or who that person would be. Maybe a neutral counsellor who could explore what he means by love and Satan would be good because these words may mean something different to a Christian or someone else.

I didn't say he shouldn't go to the Christian, but if he is in that much trouble, then lets WIDEN the range of people that may be able to help, after all this is serious.

My concern, being of a very different path is that the help may be biased.

I also want the best for him, I think we can both agree on that at least.

joshsmom4...sent you a PM.

...16 is an awful age (at least it was for me too), hope things look up for him soon.

I thought some people on the autism spectrum (although they are probably very few) could see auras around people and objects.

....and quit the religious bashing, please. Whether we believe in the presence of demons or not, THEY BELIEVE IN US. That's the danger right there.

I have a friend that sees the same things. He's convinced they're interdimensional beings of some sort. He isn't crazy, and he's very intelligent. He had an uncle who saw them as well.

I've had several discussions with him about them, trying to figure out what they are. We can't be sure exactly what their nature is, but he's done a bunch of experiments with them to find out if they're intelligent (he's convinced they are) and if they actually exist, or if they're imaginary. He say's he's seen them move objects, and his ferrets have reacted to them, so he believes that they aren't imaginary.

I personally don't see them, but I believe my friend. He isn't the sort to tell stories, and he's a rational, scientific (nonreligious) thinker.

I'd be happy to put your son and my friend together, it would seem that your son might benefit from knowing someone who sees the same thing. Send me a PM.

As for the guy who says they must be demons, I wouldn't be so quick to judge. There are more things in the universe than we know about. It could be that your son and my friend have an ability to see some very real things that the rest of us have no ability to perceive.

Before going to the conclusion or thinking about supernatural beings or demons or anything like that, even if you sort of believe in that stuff, the first thing is to think of possible natural explanations instead of first thinking of the other stuff.

Given that the person who experience this is on the spectrum, very likely is a thing related to the brain more than a paranormal thing.

For a possible explanation I could think of Synesthesia perhaps, or something similar, I believe the best thing to do is to see a doctor and do some tests probably, to see if he has condition in his brain that is affecting the senses.
