Hey Tabitha!
Welcome to TeenHelp!
I'm glad that worked for you. 
For me:
-Do schoolwork.
-Play with my dog.
-Watch shows.
-Read.
-Talk to family or friends.
-Remind myself that my body is God's temple and my injuring hurts not only me but others and God.
"i don't care your intentions. I just want you to know my self-hatred never took me where I wanted to go. At the end of the day...I can pick at the pain but I can't cut it away."
