Knowing more math than most of the people who you pass on the street, but at the same time having vastly inferior social skills to them, is something that you sort of get used to in childhood. :-) You should keep in mind, also, that as a theoretical computer scientist, I spend a lot of my time hanging around people who are abnormal in more-or-less the same ways I am, and in many cases more so.

Besides QCSD, I’d try Mermin’s Quantum Computer Science: An Introduction for QC, or any of my 50 favorite books from this list
