You're really not alone, there are so many who struggle with it at some level. Definitely try and stop beforeit gets worse, also it has really helped me to have someone that you know you can count on day and night to call or talk to if you get the urge. Sometimes keeping yourself busy until the urge eases off works too. That's one of my favorite strategies because I won't self harm unless I'm alone no matter how much I feel like it. I know at least for me being around people is the last thing you want when you feel like self harming but surrounding yourself with people helps you be safer when that urge does get almost uncontrollable! Be strong
