19:30 awesome Connor I though it was lucky at school from what I remember I just go to the exam tables. I think I not revised I'm going to fail the test because that's what teachers tell me. But then I get the answers right. Which was a surprise to me how did I remember all this. I know now it is the long term memory of autism.

[@MaxiAspie]

Connors such a great Guest enjoyed so much having him on the series

[@andrewmorton395]

Most of my family, died not noing I had Autism, I did not find out until, I woz in my late 40s.

[@MaxiAspie]

Hey Andrew sorry to hear that how are you coping currently

[@andrewmorton395]

I am finding it very hard my self, meltdown down after, meltdown.

[@MaxiAspie]

What do you find courses them the most?

[@andrewmorton395]

Same with me my short term memory is shocking.

[@MaxiAspie]

Ha ha Mine as well tbh

[@andrewmorton395]

This is so true, trying to get PIP is a night mer.

[@garyfrancis5015]

It always glass half full with PIP. Connor has improve understanding his condition by general life experience, reading up about autism and listening to his viewers. But then with PIP you want to get the daily living component you got to go back in time before you knew about being on the autism spectrum. And having to agrue about how you don't use copying mechanism everyday.

[@MaxiAspie]

Agree with you both Pip is a nightmare you can get turned away just for being well dressed is terrible

[@MaxiAspie]

I agree Andrew

[@garyfrancis5015]

I was 16 when it was suggested by a psychologist I had behaviour of aspergers. So my life mirror Connor. So I got to 16 before my family though there was a name a label to why I'm me. I'm 35 now so I adapt so much to life. I forget what I was like do I have aspergers anymore? All this masking it feels like a cure. But it isn't.

[@MaxiAspie]

I totally get what you mean Gary how do you find it now?

[@andrewmorton395]

It's really stressful for me.

[@MaxiAspie]

What is most stressfull for you Andrew?
