What other coping methods do you have? Sometimes thinking and writing down what you have in your tool bad helps to realize that you have other coping skills.
Are there things that are going on to trigger the SI? Was it a one time things that turned into a compulsion, or are you triggered by an onslaught of continuous negative emotions or experiences or stressers?
Let me know if you want to talk.

Some of my coping skills are journaling, taking walks, doing puzzles. I have a whole list actually but I can't remember where I put it.
I'm just extremely stressed right now and also have been going through a depressed episode the past 8 weeks. Some of the urges are coming from thoughts of sui. Which are also urges at times but cutting seemed like the best temporary relief .
