I find doing my stretching and PT exercises almost every morning helps my joint pain and decrease back problems. I try to focus on the positive. Music helps redirect my thoughts and motivates me. I try to eat healthy. Initially tried strict anti inflammation diet but it didn't seem to help me and made me a bit crazy. 🥴
Good luck!

Here's kinda a cheat sheet that we came up with, here on this site, several months ago after evaluating many RA diets. Perhaps this may help a bit.

I avoid red meat and soft drinks. Have limited amounts of dairy, alcohol and sweets.
