What can I do when I feel an urge?

When you feel an urge to hurt yourself, you can do something that will gave you the same release but will not harm you. For example, I find hitting a rubber band against my wrist instead of cutting myself works or exercising when I feel anxious. If you feel like you're a danger to yourself, surround yourself with friends or family. If you feel comfortable enough to tell them what you're feeling, please do so. You can overcome anything if you put your mind to it!

try to move out of loneliness and the surroundings and divert the thoughts that urges you to self harm your self

Put your mind on something else. Think of the consequences that may come if you go through with it. Think of how long you've got without doing it. Realize who you could be hurting if you do it. People love you, you just have to find them.

When you feel an urge, try to distract yourself, think of happy thoughts and don't think of anything that weill trigger you even more

you should try to distract yourself! you can do this by creating something, like drawing or writing about how you feel, this is really effective and something that you can always come back to

There are many resources out on the internet which list many different alternatives, however here are a few that might help: holding ice cubes to your skin, scribbling on yourself in red pen, drawing out your emotions, writing in a journal, sucking strong mints, punching a pillow, dancing to loud music, having a cold shower, making something like biscuits, paint your nails, exercise...

Listen to music you like, drink something, brush your teeth, something that distract you from the feeling.

If we're talking about an urge to hurt oneself, there are many options. Read, go outside, write, draw, talk to someone, all kinds of things. Even sleep if possible. The goal is to try to keep yourself from doing it.

You can go do something positive to get your mind off what you are having the urge to do. Personally, I go running. Sometimes exercising helps people (like me) other times, talking to someone who cares about you helps also.

You can exercise, read a favorite book, take some deep breaths, talk to a friend or relative, watch a favorite tv show, or play a game.
