This does not sound normal. Do you usually have a period every month? You are the best person to know how normal it is for you. It is alarming that you haven't had a period since April, but if the norm for you is not getting a period for months at a time, everything could be okay. There are a couple of things I can think of that could cause this.
1. Are you on hormonal birth control, like the pill or the patch? Birth control can really mess up hormones and that changes menstrual cycles a lot---that could explain the spotting and why you've missed your periods. That could also explain why you've been bleeding for so long during this cycle, especially if you've recently stopped your birth control, have missed a pill, or have taken emergency contraception.
2. You could have gotten pregnant back in April. Sometimes after women get their period, sperm is still in their bodies while they're ovulating. That means that even though you got your period on April 20th you could still be pregnant, especially if you had sex up to ten days before you got your period in April. This means that the bleeding is definitely not normal; my suggestion is to go see a doctor, because if you did miscarry a home pregnancy test may tell you you're not pregnant. Miscarriages can have lasting health effects, especially to your reproductive organs, so it's a really good idea to get medical attention.
3. Do you have other medical conditions, especially ones that have to do with your reproductive health or your hormones? If you aren't on birth control and you're definitely not pregnant (that is, a doctor confirmed that you were not pregnant or miscarrying) it's probably a good idea to let them know what's going on so they can make sure you're healthy otherwise. Bleeding for two weeks is usually not a great sign, but if you let your doctor know what's going on, things should be okay.
