Here's a quote from Matthew Fox on the timeline:
Quote:
In his interview with comingsoon.net, Fox did offer a hint about the timeframe of the series, when asked how much time had passed on the island since the aeroplane crash.
He said: "If you're going to talk about from Jack in the plane crash to Jack in the future, that's about a year-and-a-half, and Jack on the island now would be about 120 days."

So it took Jack I'd say, about 2 months to totally go over the deep end. That's judging by the length of his beard in last season's finale.
I've read posts where people are saying that Kate's son is 3 - 3 1/2. This would mean she had him long before the plane crash. Maybe she had a kid and gave it to someone for safekeeping. When she returned from the island she picked him up and re-named him Aaron.
