Rheumatoid Arthritis Group For People between 23-35

This is the Meetup club for people who suffer from Rheumatoid Arthritis in the Triangle Area and are between the ages of 23-35.
I am 27 years old and have been suffering from RA since birth. I was in remission from 20-25 and now my RA is back ten fold.
The age restriction is so our club consists of people in the same life stage with the same disease. I find that I either meet older people (in their 50's or older) or very young people (children and teenagers) with RA but have yet to meet people in my age bracket.
I am hoping that will change with the opening of this group. After all it is harder to relate to people out of our own life stage who have RA because in my opinion the years between 23-35 are the hardest to live with a disability.
I say this because this is the time in life when we are supposed to be pursuing our dreams, identities, careers and starting our own families. As we all know this is ten times harder to do when you are living with RA.
The goal is to make this a welcoming environment where you can meet people to lean on during the hard times.
Thank You and thank you for joining.
