Pinksoil, since your main symptom of BPD is SI, I wonder if a group for SI would be a better fit?

I wish there was one. That's part of the problem of SI-- since it is a symptom, a coping skill, but not an actual disorder, rarely do you find a group devoted solely to this issue. Such a program exists (The Safe Program) but I'm not traveling to Chicago or Texas, or whever they are, at this point! It is also a highly stigmatized issue that people tend ot be afraid to talk about openly. Because of this it is one of my personal endeavors to run self-injury therapy groups for self-injurers alone, and ones for SI'ers and their family members-- I hope to do this when I am a psychologist and (hopefully) not self-injurying anymore. There is a great need for this type of help.
