It's a bird! It's a plane! It's an... elf?

Oh, so THIS enters new realms of the weird in the relationship I have with my folks

The last time I saw an elf was never because they don't exist.

Seriously you should probably talk to someone:

Srsly, you should look into alternative spiritual beliefs.

Spirituality is poison for rational minds.

The reason your father is concerned about the sleep and eating patterns you cite is that they're not normal, and usually they're not healthy. What you describe sounds a lot to me like the kind of symptoms associated with hormonal imbalance or another low-level underlying health problem; were I in your place, I'd see a doctor about the situation and try to figure out if there's some underlying factor. (I think this attention to your health would also help reassure your father.)

I would make sure that this isn't an actual health issue before I would attribute it to my 'kin nature. I'm an Elf too, but I find that being in a human body means it reacts in human ways to things. I may have an Elf soul, but I have a Human body.
