Redirect/distract yourself until the thoughts/urges naturally dwindle. Fight tooth and nail to just do whatever you need to do to distract yourself from doing it. Whether it's healthy, healing, productive, kinda unhealthy, or generally frowned upon; as long as it's safer/less bad than SH? Do what you gotta do until you don't gotta do it

Take a shot of lemon juice every time you get the urge to

It was for real helpful I ended up being totally repulsed by the urge after a while. I mean there’s still times that it doesn’t work but it’s helpful
