I tend to SI when everything feels out of control. That seems to be one thing I know I can control. I've also been known to get tattoos. I haven't done it in awhile, but I have had the urges. When the urges hit me, I try to find something that requires a lot of attention from me--something to take my mind off of it until the urge passes. It doesn't always work, but it's worth a try. You could try calling a friend, reading a book, or trying a new recipe. I find sorting things helps me. I don't know what that's about, but it works.
