18

I was diagnosed at 17 and then lost insurance for years. The pain is unbearable if you don't have insurance but manageable with therapy and pain management.

file for disability ASAP otherwise you're going to end up losing functioning, losing your job, and being stuck without any help.

it's painful but if you force yourself to stay moderately active, swimming, walking, etc. the pain becomes more manageable over time as you get used to it.

you'll be okay anon, it will be tough but you'll be okay

not op, but have family member wheelchair bound and pain compounds...

drink your problems away. it's what i do.

I recently lost the use of my hands due to painful irritation of my ulnar and mddian nerve from overuse, i spent 2 years recovering and not being able use my hands.

Try DMSO, it's aloe vera that goes inside the skin to neal nerves and oxidise muscles. First figure out your insurance and get on disabilities and see how far that gets you.

i would look for information with a pencil in my mouth on the wiiu. I don't know much about artheritus but you have to try you options.

Since you sound hopeless i strongly suggest you find god, develope a relationship with god, either hearful medition or evangelical. Spiritual forces can help you, having a positive atitude can solve a lot of problems, understanding that there is a god who is love gives you hope, talk to a preist. I'm going to come off as a cult leader to every internet atheist here but i strongly suggest you look into it. Praying is creating a thought form with you and sending it to god to grant prayer.

You need hope, that things can get better, because you're own self fullfiling prophecy.
