I am freaking out and the only thing that will make me feel any better is cutting. Idk what to do. I’m trying not to cut but it’s the only thing that will help now. Music won’t even help.

I've heard it can help to take a pen and draw where you want to cut. The feeling might be satisfying enough to keep you from cutting and I imagine reflecting on how those marks look on your skin could grant you some perspective. I hope this helps.
