I don't know how to resolve the coinflicting feelings I have about being alive. I had no near death experience, tunnel light, that stuff. I was, then I wasn't, now I am again. Am I a zombie?

I would say that you have had a fairly unique opportunity to consider your life and what you really want it to be. Not having every experienced it, I would say look at it as a blessing and do some serious contemplation.

Are you a zombie? Do you lack a pulse, breath? Do you have an intense craving for brains? Are you experiencing rigger mortis?
No, you're not a zombie, my dear.
I have never studied death experiences myself, I have no authority on the subject. But don't you think it's possible that what you experienced was normal? Perhaps all these stories about bright lights and dead family members are made up by the victems' subconscious. The human mind is a very powerful thing. If a person believes strongly enough in a certain outcome of a near-death experience, when they awaken they might unwittingly convince themselves that they experienced such things while they were dead.
Considering the emotional trama that is involved durring such incidents, it is undeniably possible, and probable that the victems' minds creat a false memory that the victems had so deperately expected to have.
In my opinion, this emotional trama might leave the victems' in mental states very similar to hipnosis for some period of time. Hipnosis itself is very misinterpretted by media. The psychological definition of hipnosis is simply an altered state marked by high suggestibility. To illustrate the definition, information gained through hipnosis is usually dismissed in court of law because it's far too easy for the hipnotist to creat false memories.

No, most likely the Doctors used your body for some kind of reanimation experaments and now your neither dead nor alive but living in some in-between world. Get a chain-saw and find these bastages (just kidding).
Your fine, you're just now getting over the shock of the realization that your mortal and died (the biggest shock of all) and now its hitting you. I recommend talking to someone (dear god not a religous person) but perhaps a friend or family member.
Write down how it made you feel when you woke up and found out what happened and how it makes you feel now. You sound a little de-sensitized, like your looking at life a little detached. Much like the stages of grief or any other big realization, this will take time and effort to get over and its best not to go through it alone. If no one else listens, call your local free mental health clinc through your county health services. They offer great services and no ones saying your crazy, you just need a set of ears to listen and someone ask the right questions from you. Good luck.

NO not a zombie just very lucky...It simply wasn't your time to go, it's okay that you didn't have A NDE lights, sounds experience -amesia is very common in situations like yours thank goodness. Think of it like being in a coma a blank memory, you were very sick or injured and coming back to life can be weird from that point, internally or I should I say you have to get your head around it, when you go through such a tragic and deep experience it's normal to feel weird and not so normal it'll work out, your meant to be here or the resusitation wouldn't have worked.

God 1400 years ago has answered your question.Yes, you were dead temporarly but not "Zombie"! In the Holy Quran, Chapter "An-Nahl" verse 61 God says:" ..and if Allah(God) were to seize mankind for their wrong-doings, He would not leave on earth a single moving creature, but He postpones them for an appointed term and when their term comes, they can neither delay it nor they can advance it any length of time." This is the death that no one can esacpe, in Islam it is called the Grand death. But there is a the "temporal death" or the tiny death as called in Islam. This death is experienced by creatures including humans in cases like your case or in cases mainly like when in "sleep". The majority of people wake up but there are some people who die during sleep without any cause. Many people have witnessed simialar cases in this life. Here about this God says in the Holy Quran Chapter Az-Zumar verse 42: "It is Allah who takes away the souls at the time of their death, and those that die not during their sleep. He keeps those souls for which He has ordained death and sends the rest for a term appointed. Verily, in this are signs for a people who thinks deeply". This is not my answere nor any human answer. It is from the most High the Creator of all things God (Allah). Make use of this Chance and put UR 1st step on the way of God.

Well, I'd be more concerned if you DIDN'T feel different. Maybe this experience was God's way of getting your attention. Although this is rather vague, I'd probably wager that ever since you realized how close you are to death, you are starting to feel that "God-shaped hole".
If you're a Christian, talk to your pasotr or minister about it. They could probably help you understand.
If you're not a Christian, I'd suggest that you consider giving it a shot. Look into some stuff about it, like the stuff here:

You are not a zombie. I'm sorry that this awful thing happened. Try not to take yourself so seriously, try to enjoy your "second chance". I don't like that word but for lack of a better one....You are ok. After such a big experience like this, I don't think you'll be able to go back to who you were. But you are wiser and stronger because of this experience. Do you think you should have had tunnel lights, angels, NDE?

be thankfull your still alive, your not a zombie and you have a chance to live your life once more... to get rid of that feeling just spend time with friends and family and try to live insteed of sitting around dwelling on what happened, after all clinically dead is just a medical standard designed for an average, you obviously are beter than average =)

You are not a zombie; you have been given a second chance to get it right, don't take it for granted. You had a near death experience but grace and mercy (God) said no. HE is the God of a second chance.

No dear heart you are most defiantly not a zombie. Obviously there is some unfinished business that you still need to do here on Earth before you die.
We do not die until it is our time,it was not your time to die yet.
I don't know what conflicting feelings you are experiencing so I can not address that.
Find out what it is that you were sent back to finish,and set about accomplishing that task. Enjoy life,it is a gift.
