I am really excited to find this website. I was diagnosed diagnosed with Aspergers in 5th Grade. Thanks to major effort on my mom's part (Dad's a twit). The school officials thought she was imagining my symptoms (Ha Ha on them). Mostly I've been happy with myself except for the obsessive paranoia and how irrational I get when I'm stressed or upset. My current obessions are pugs, being a librarian, zombie books, postapocalyptic books, and yaoi. Hello to all of you! *waves*

It is nice to hear someone noticed while you were young!

Hi and Welcome,

You might discover that your dad is aspie too. When that happens, sometimes they see your behaviour as "normal".

When my first child was diagnosed my wife kept saying there was something wrong but I kept saying he was normal - because he was just like me at that age.

Maybe...

The Zombie books sounds interesting...

I loved World War Z
and loved the Resident Evil books.

What other Zombie books are there? I didn't think there was a lot?

Hi Seris,

Welcome To

Don't worry about paranoia, it's just societies conspiracy to confuse us. :lol:

No I don't think so. I think my Aspergers comes from my mother's side of the family. I believe my mother has it somewhat and my grandmother and I are very alike. My Uncle DEFINITELY has it. All undiagnosed just my speculation. My dad just thought we were all weird. Really really weird. It's kind of hard to explain anything to him.

There isn't really. I've just dug up some.
Dead City by Joe McKinney
Day by Day Armageddon by J. L. Bourne
The Rising by Brian Keene
City of the Dead by Brian Keene
The Living Dead (Anthology)
Xombies by Walter Greatshell
Those are the only ones I've read. It's hard for me to get ahold of any. My libraries are just no fun. Just wait until I'm a librarian. My library will be filled with such a selection of zombies and other fantasticness that peoples minds will implode from being unable witness such greatness. *evil laughter*
