I was wanting to help ppl who are dealing with SI and I did a google search & came up with this group. After reading some of the threads over a cpl of days time I decided to join up.

I was also struggling with si and did research and that was the first time i noticed that there was a lot of ppl who steuggle with it and tthat im not alone so i joined the same day i saw it after i explored a bit

i was severely manic and desperate so started googling bipolar support groups and stumbled across DS... so glad i did! i ended up joining other groups like SI and the such and it has been so helpful through the last 5 years! can't believe its been that long but i have made some incredible friends and any time im starting to lose it i come back here and talk to someone or just read posts in one of my groups and it always helps even if just to reopen my eyes to the fact that i am not alone!

i googled it as i was struggling with cutting and randomly came across it :)

i was looking for a SI anonymous group in my area and thankfully stumbled across this website...i was depressed suicidal at my wits end this along with getting professional help put on meds therapy 3 to 4 times a week has saved my life...i can honestly say i wouldnt be here today if i hadnt found this place...the support i received, well was just enormous

I came across this site a few years ago. My therapists all knew about this site. They encouraged me to join, but when I did a few years back I didn't really get any support on here. I wanted to try again recently because I'm at the point in my life where I need the support very badly. Support groups in my area are shady to say the least. I'm still iffy on whether rejoining was a good idea or not.

I stumbled upon it accidentally after being on the Dr. Oz site when I found it I thought this could really be helpful to me and I could possibly help others
