Hi @Jamber welcome to the Online Community. Getting diagnosed with a long term condition can take a lot of adjusting to.

Chat, support and ideas is what the forum is all about, but while you wait for someone to come along and reply I would like to give you a couple of links which might help a bit:

and:

https://www.versusarthritis.org/news/2022/january/a-big-part-of-any-arthritis-diagnosis-is-dealing-with-what-it-means/

Now that you have introduced yourself please do feel free to loo around the rest of the forum. Living with Arthritis tends to be a very popular category.

Best wishes

Ellen.

Hi @Jamber

Welcome to the community, please know that we are all here to support each other in such difficult times.

Can I please ask what you have been diagnosed with?

There are many people here with life long conditions including myself (I too am finding things very hard) but with a huge bank of knowledge and experiences between everyone in this group, hopefully it can help slightly.

Please reach out

Jay
