Physically and mentally down

Hi all, I'm new here.
When I first found out I had RA, I was 15. I have been living with it for 8yrs now. This year I felt like it has gone worse because my right ankle has been aching and both my elbows are just killing me, I cant even stretch them straight. I am taking only Prednisone but lately it feels like the medicine it's even effective like before. I used to take omega 3 fish oil but I ran out of stock and living in a developing country it's quite difficult for me.
Since the aching in my elbows have gone worse my self esteem has dropped has well and that's why I came here looking for support groups. I feel like it'll help me.

Hi Malex, I'm so sorry to hear that your pain has gotten worse. I know personally, my RA has also been getting worse, and I am in my twenties too. I came here seeking the same thing--a community of support. It is difficult trying to deal with RA alone.
