To echo the others above you, GOOD FOR YOU!!!
It's very difficult to talk at a support group for the first time, and about being "hurt" at anytime. It's been years now since I first went to a support group for depression and bipolar, but the people I met there are some of my best friends, and the best thing is that I don't have to hide my feeling and pretend that I'm ok when I'm in the middle of a depression.
