If there were a self injury support group in your area, would you go?

I am thinking of creating a support group in my community, but I don't know if people would go. Would you?

I personally wouldn't go regularly because I can barely remember to make it to therapy once a week and I'm doing all right with self-injury at the moment. If I were struggling with self-injury a lot I would definitely be happy to have such a resource there. 

One of my visits in the hospital they spent time trying to find a self-injury group in the general area and came up with nothing. I had been wanting to talk with people outside of my therapist or the Internet about self-injury.

There are people who would go, people who wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. I'd just say give it a go and let people know about it through your website and put it in the directory here and advertise anyplace else they let you put listings in. I've known other self-injurers interested in support groups but were unable to find one in their area.
