When did you first realize that your family member was self-harming? Tell me about this realization and what came next.	If you initiated treatment, how did you know that it was time to seek treatment for your family member’s self-harm? If you initiated treatment, how did you go about seeking treatment? Who did you turn to?
Are you satisfied with the treatment your family member has received for self-harm?	If you are not satisfied, what do you wish you or providers had done differently? If you are satisfied, what treatment experiences have made you feel this way?
Imagine you have a friend who has a family member with similar disabilities as your own. This friend comes to you with concerns that their family member has begun engaging in self-harm. What would you suggest they do?	What would be the best way to inform people about how to find help?
